Question

At camp last summer, the ratio of boys to girls was 5:4. If there was a total of 90 campers, how many girl campers are there? explain

Answer 1

40 girls

Explanation:

if you multiply 5 times 10, then you have to multiply the other side by 10 too. So 5 times 10 equals 50, and 4 times 10 equals 40.

40+50+=90.
