in a history class, the girl to boy ratio is 9 to 5. if there is a total of 70 students how many boys is there

There are 25 boys in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

9-5

9-5=18-10

9-5=27-15

9-5=36-20

9-5=45-25

45+25=70

25 boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, first add the two parts of the ratio. 9 + 5 = 14. Then divide 70 by 14 to get 5. Since the total is 5 times the ratio total, multiply both sides of the ratio by 5. The result is 45 : 25. If you add them together, you get a total of 70. Therefore, there are 25 boys in the class.
