In a school there are 75 girls in the tennis squad. The ratio of the numbers of boys in the tennis squad to the number of girls in the tennis squad is 4:3. Work out the number of boys in the tennis squad

100

Step-by-step explanation:

divide 75 by 3

get the answer of 25

multiply 4 by 25

get answer of 100

100 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

boys: girls

4:3

We want to get the girls to 75

3 * what = 75

Divide each side by 3

3*what/3 = 75/3

what is 25

We need to multiply by 25 on both sides. The ratio will stay the same

boys: girls

25 * 4:3*25

100 : 75

There are 100 boys
