The ratio of boys to girls in a class is 5:4. There are 36 Students in the class. How many students are girls

16

Step-by-step explanation:

let boys equal to 5x

and girls equal to 4x

so 4x+5x=36

X=4

so boys are 5*4

boys are 20

and girls are 16

so boys are 4 more than girls

16 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

boys : girls : total

5          4        5+4 = 9

take the total number of people and divide by 9

36/9 = 4

Each number should be multiplied by 4

boys : girls : total

5*4        4*4     9*4

20          16        36

There are 16 girls

36 is the final answer! : )
