In fifth grade at lenape elemantary school, there are 4/7 as many girls as there are boys .There are 66 students in fifth grade. How many students are girls?

there are 24 girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of boys in fifth grade at lenape elemantary school.

In fifth grade at lenape elemantary school,there are 4/7 as many girls as there are boys. This means that the number of girls in the school would be

4/7 × x = 4x/7

There are 66 students in fifth grade. This means that

x + 4x/7 = 66

Cross multiplying by 7, it becomes

7x + 4x = 462

11x = 462

x = 462/11

x = 42

The number of girls would be

66 - 42 = 24

pls ask

-362

step-by-step explanation:

(12)(4)+2(12)-34(12)+2(12)-3

  \/         \/         \/         \/

  48 +   24 -   408 + 24 - 3

      \   /               \   /

          72     -     432 - 3 = -363
