4/5 of the children are boys.
So 1 - 4/5 ie 1/5 of the children are girls.
1/5 = 100 so 1 = 500 ie there are 500 children in all.
4/5 of 500 is 500*4/5 = 400
So there are 400 boys.

A mathematical problem can be given in words, such as: Three boys and two girls walked to school. On the way, they met two boys and four girls also walking to school. How many boys walked to school? How many girls walked to school. NOTE: This website won't show the plus sign so I have to use the word plus. A number sentence would be: 2 boys plus two boys equals 4 boys. 2 girls plus four girls equals 6 girls. NOTE: Your teacher probably will want only the numbers.
If there are four times as many boys as girls, then the ratio of boys to girls is 4:1. To find the number of girls, divide the total number of children by the sum of the parts of the ratio, which is 4+1. So, there would be 30/5 = 6 girls in the group.
190 girls
90 girls
All children (girls/boys) learn at school
Divide the number of girls by the total number of children (boys + girls).
189 boys
I think this is what you are looking for...0.8 = 80%100 = 20%80/20 = 4100 x 4 = 400 boys
Most children attend school, more boys than girls though

The answer depends on whether the children are picked at random. If they were selected from inside a girls' school the probability should be quite close to 0. Likewise, if the children were picked inside a boys' school. If six children are picked at random from a large group of children with an equal number of boys and girls, then the answer is 6C2*(1/2)6 = 15/32 = 0.47, approx.
72 girls and 18 boys for a total of 90.

Yes! And it is the law of most countries. Children have to go to school.
