Question

there are 24 students in Mr. Ryans class. 2/3 of the the students are boys. how many students in Mr. ryans class are boys​

Answer 1

16 boys.



Multiplying by 2/3 is the same as multiplying by 2 and dividing by 3, so let’s do that.

24 * 2 / 3 = boys

Now, just solve.

48 / 3 = boys

16 = boys

So, there are 16 boys in Mr. Ryan’s class.
