Last summer,at camp okey-fun okey, the ratio of the number of boy campers to the number of girl campers was 8:7. If there were a total of 195 campers how many boy campers were there?____girls campers___
Add the ratio 8:7. After you have done that you divide 195 by 15. Then you multiply the quotient by 8 and 7. That will be your answer.
The answer is that there are 104 boys and 91 girls.
I donβt know I just need the answer
At the beginning of Grade 6, the ratio of the number of advanced math students to the number of regular math students was π: π. However, after taking placement tests, students were moved around changing the ratio of the number of advanced math students to the number of regular math students to π: π. How many students started in regular math and advanced math if there were 92 students in advanced math after the placement tests?
There were --------------
students in the advanced math class. There were ------------------
students in the regular math class before the placement tests.
am Justin Bieber, pls answers
what is the answer
To find the number of boy campers and girl campers, we can set up a proportion using the ratio given and solve for the unknowns.
Let's represent the number of boy campers as 8x and the number of girl campers as 7x since the ratio is 8:7.
According to the given information, the total number of campers is 195. So, we can write the equation:
8x + 7x = 195
Combine like terms:
15x = 195
To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by 15:
x = 195 / 15
x = 13
Now that we know x = 13, we can substitute this value back into the expressions for boy campers and girl campers:
Number of boy campers = 8x = 8 * 13 = 104
Number of girl campers = 7x = 7 * 13 = 91
So, there were 104 boy campers and 91 girl campers.
b/g = 8/7
so
b = (8/7) g
b + g = 195
(8/7) g + (7/7) g = 195
15 g = 7 * 195
g = 7 * 195 / 15 etc
