Step-by-step explanation:
Alright, so let’s make the information given into equations
b= # of boys
g= # of girls
x= total number of students = b + g
4/9(b+g)=g which becomes 4/9b + 4/9g = g
4/9b = 5/9g
g= ((4/9)b)/(5/9)
g + 17 = b
Now solve for g
g= b-17
Now set those both equal to each toher
b-17 = (4/9b)/(5/9)
b-17= 0.8b
b-0.8b = 17
b(1–0.8) = 17
b(0.2) = 17
b= 17/0.2
b= 85
Now we know how many boys
Solve for girls
g = b-17
g=68
So there are 85 boys and 68 girls!
