In a class of 60 students, 4/5 are members of Math Club. Among the members, 3/5 are girls. How many boys are members of Math Club?
60 * 4 / 5 = 240 / 5 = 48
48 students are members of Math Club.
Among the members, 3 / 5 are girls:
48 * 3 / 5 = 144 / 5 = 28.8 girls
48 - 28.8 = 19.2 boys
Your question does not make sense.
To find the number of boys in the Math Club, we first need to determine the total number of students in the Math Club.
Given that 4/5 of the total students are members of the Math Club, we can calculate the number of Math Club members by multiplying the total number of students by this fraction:
Number of Math Club members = (4/5) * 60 = 48 students
To find the number of boys in the Math Club, we need to determine the fraction of Math Club members who are boys. We are given that 3/5 of the Math Club members are girls, so the fraction of boys can be calculated by subtracting the fraction of girls from 1:
Fraction of boys = 1 - (3/5) = 2/5
Finally, we multiply the fraction of boys by the total number of Math Club members to get the number of boys:
Number of boys = (2/5) * 48 = 19.2
Since we can't have a fraction of a student, we round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the number of boys who are members of the Math Club is 19.
