Sagot :

Answer:

[tex]{ \bf{total \: ratio = 4 + 3 = 7}} \\ { \tt{let \: population \: be \: p}} \\ \frac{4}{7} \times p = 24 \\ 4p = 168 \\ p = 42 \\ { \bf{there \: are \: 42 \: people}}[/tex]

Boys to girls- 4:3

Boys and girls- 24 and x (let the girls be x)

4/3=24/x

=4x= 72

= x= 72/4

= x= 18 girls

Ans: There are 42 children (24+18)
