Question

The ratio of boys to girls on the bus is 3:2. If there are 18 boys on the

bus, how many girls are on the bus?

Answer 1

12 girls 18 boys Total 30 students

Explanation

x=number of girls

18/3 = x/2

3x=18*2

3x=36

x=12

Other proof

x= number of groups

3x +2x = 30

5x=30

x=6

3*(6) + 2*(6) = 30

18+12=30

Answer 2

I think there is 9.

before it was simplified it might have been 6:9

then you simplify by 2 and get 3:2.

But i might be wrong so idk
