What is the ratio of boys to girls in ms. smith's class is 3 to 4 if there are 12 boys how many total students are there?

3 boys to 4 girls. You know you have 12 boys/ ?girls. Do the boys first. 12 divides into 3 4 times, so you would multiply girls by the same amount.

3 x 4 = 12

4 x 4 = 16

So, you would have 12 boys/ 16 girls. Ratio 12 to 16 or 12 : 16

Hope this helps you. :)

1/4 and 8/3 because:

the reciprocal if 4 is 1/4 because 4 is used as 4/1 and the opposite of that is 1/4. the opposite of 3/8 is 8/3 so that is the answer.

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
