Given the statement:
There are 77 students in the student council. The ratio of girls to boys is 7:4.
Determine the number of students that are girls.
Solution:
Since we are given the ratio 7:4, and the total number of students, we can find the number of girls by dividing 77 with 7 and multiplying it with 4.
= 77/7
= 11
= (11)(4)
=44
Final answer:
There are 44 students which are girls.
