The ratio of boys to girls is 7: 12 if there are 76 children how many are girls?

The girls are 48 in number

Step-by-step explanation:

The question states that the ratio of boys to girls is 7 : 12, there are 76 children, we are to find the number of girls.

To find the number of girls, we are to follow the steps below;

Boys  :   Girls

 7       :   12

We take the ration number of girl which is 12 over the total ratio number then we multiply by 76.

The total ratio number = 7 + 12 = 19

That is;

 Number of girls =  ×    76

                             =

                             =48

Therefore there are 48 number of girls

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
