HELPP ASAP The ratio of boys to girls in the sixth grade is 3:4. If there are 48 girls, what is the total number of sixth graders?

36

55

60

84

Set up two ratios: 3:4 and x:48. The ratio always stays the same, so the value that you increased the girls by will be equal with the boys. To get from 4 to 48, you need to multiply by 12. So, to get a proportional number of boys, multiply 3 x 12.

The ratio of boys to girls is 36:48. The question is asking how man total, so add. 36 + 48 = 84.

There are 84 total sixth graders.

step-by-step explanation:

you are throwing one dart

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
