IF THERE ARE 24 GIRLS IN THE CLASS HOW MANY BOYS ARE THERE IN THE CLASS Y=3/8X
First, please do not use all capitals. Online it is like SHOUTING. Not only is it rude, but it is harder to understand. Thank you.
You don't indicate whether Y or X stands for which gender.
Boys = 3/8 girls = 3/8 * 24 = 9
Girls = 3/8 boys
24 = 3/8 boys
64 = boys
To determine the number of boys in the class, we need to substitute the given value of girls into the equation Y = (3/8)X.
Given that there are 24 girls in the class, we can substitute it into the equation as follows:
Y = (3/8) * X
Y = (3/8) * 24
To solve this equation, we can multiply 24 by 3/8:
Y = 3/8 * 24
Y = (3 * 24)/8
Y = 72/8
Simplifying the fraction 72/8, we divide the numerator by the denominator:
Y = 9
Therefore, there are 9 boys in the class.
