1.7. In a Maths class, the girl to boy ratio is 7:5.
If there are 20 boys, how many girls are in the class?


Sagot :

noors

Answer:

28 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total students be ‘X’

No of girls = (X-20)

Girls/Boys=7/5=(X-20)/20

7(20) =5(X-20)

140=5X-100

5X=240

X = 240/5

X =48

So, Total Students are 48

No of girls = (X-20) = 48-20 = 28
