Answer: 65
Step 1: Multiply and add until you get 49.
11 x 4 = 44.
44 + 5 = 49.
Step 2: Multiply and add until you get 26, because 7:11 to 49 boys is 26, 26 : 49.
7 x 3 = 21.
21 + 5 = 26.
Step 3: Add 26 and 49.
26 + 49 = 65
Answer:
126 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Boys : Girls
7 : 11
How do you get from 7 to 49?
49 ÷ 7 = 7
Therefore, you should multiply the number of boys by 7.
Multiply:
7 : 11
7 × 7 = 49
49 : 11
Remember that whatever we do to the left, do to the right.
Multiply:
49 : 11
11 × 7 = 77
49 : 77
Now, let's add the number of boys and girls in the class to find the total number of students.
Add:
49 + 77 = 126
Therefore, there are 126 students in all.
