There are 81 girls to every 72 boys in total, which can be represented by 81/72, which put into decimal form, is 1.125. If you then take the number of boys in the group, 16, and multiply it by this number (because the problem states that the ratio is constant) you can find the number of girls in the group.
16*1.125=18
So there are 18 girls in a group with 16 boys.
Use distributive property <em>a(b + c) = ab + ac</em>
4(x + 2) - 3(7 + y) = (4)(x) + (4)(2) + (-3)(7) + (-3)(y)
= 4x + 8 - 21 - 3y = 4x - 3y - 13
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
← Equation 1
By simplifying the above equation we get,
(Simplifying the brackets)
(By subtracting 
from 
) ← Equation 2
Multiply Equation 1 by 5 and Equation 2 by 3 and add them together.
Equation 1 multiplied by 5 will give,
Equation 2 multiplied by 3 will give,
Add those together,
(After simplifying 
values)
Therefor
By substituting to Equation 1 we get,
Therefor we can say,
If you divide the 24 delivery vans into 8 groups that means the truck dealer sells 8 trucks
