Answer 1

Answer:

5 and 45 are the correct answers.

Given:

in a music group of 45 people 1/9 are vocalists and the rest play musical instruments

To find:

How many people are vocalists and how many play instruments

Solution:

let the number of vocalists be Y.

Y = 1 / 9 x 45

Y = 5

So, number of people who play musical instruments = total people - vocalists

number of people who play musical instruments = 45 - 5 = 40

Hence, 5 and 45 are the correct answers.
