the ratio of the number of adults to the number of children on a cruise was 13: 6. the ratio of girls to the total number of children was 2: 5. if there were 198 boys on the cruise, what was the total number of passengers?

1,045 passengers

Step-by-step explanation:

This question involves multiple steps. Let's first try to figure the number of children on the cruise.

The ratio of girls to the total number of children was 2:5. There are 198 boys.

This information tells me that for every 5 children, there's 2 girls and 3 boys.

Based off of this information, we can divide the total number of boys by 3 in order to find the number of children.

198÷3=66

Let's multiply 66 by 5 since that's the number of groupings based off the ratio.

66×5=330

Let's check the number of children. Since the ratio of girls to total children is 2:5 and we already confirmed there's 198 boys, there should be 132 girls. We can turn this ratio into a fraction where 2/5 of the children are girls. we can confirm this by multiply 330 by 2/5 (0.4) and getting 132.

There are 330 children on the cruise.

The ratio of the number of adults to the number of children was 13:6.

For every 6 children, there were 13 adults. Let's divide the number of children by 6 in order to find the number of groupings.

330÷6=55

Let's now multiply the groupings by 13 to find the number of adults.

55×13=715

So there should be 715 adults and 330 children on the cruise.

715+330=1,045

answer: bearing in mind that a rectangle has a perimeter of length + length + width + width.

step-by-step explanation:

p = perimeter

l = length

x=width

p = 2l + 2x

p = 2(l+x)     < ==== perimeter of the base of the box.

answer: input the dimensions of the room to be painted. click the button to calculate the amount of paint and man-hours needed for this job.

interior paint coverage depends on the brand of paint used. the coverage amount is listed on the label of the paint can. use this to adjust the values in the paint coverage section below. paint usually is applied at 350 to 400 square feet per gallon (primer at 200 to 300 square feet per gallon).
