Another Maths question that I need advice:


In the 2 classes 6A and 6B, the total number of girls was 100% more than the total number of boys. The ratio of boys to girls in 6A was 3:4 and the ratio of boys to girls in class 6B was 1:6. If there were 8 more girls in class 6A than class 6B, find the number of pupils in class 6A.


Thanks,

[quote=\"Cheerfuldad\"]Hi all,


Please help!

Q 1. While on a Europe tour, Sam read 544 pages of a book at first. He read the remaining pages in 23 days, with the same number of pages each day. During these 23 days, he read 1/13 of the book in 7 days. How many pages of the book did he read in the 7 days?

Q 2. There were 65 more boys than girls at a carnival on Sunday. 60% of the boys and 2/7 of the girls who were at the carnival on Sunday went on Saturday too. The remaining 143 boys and girls went only on Sunday.
a) How many more boys than girls went to the carnival on both days?
b) Find the total number of boys and girls at the carnival on Sunday.

Thank you.

Please help with this question:


Jovi had 2 strings, string A and string B. Initially, string A was thrice the length of string B. Jovi then cut 9.1m from string A and 140cm from string B. The length of string B became 1.5 times of string A. What was the length of string A at first?

Thanks!
