The ratio of the number of boys campers to the number of girl campers was 8:7. if there were a total of 195 campers, how many boy camers? how many girl campers?
Imagine for a group of 15 (8 boys and 7 girls), you will have 8 girls. So the ratio of girls to total campers is 8/15 Because we have 195 campers, we have 8/15 = x/195 solve for x x= 104 girls and we have 195 - 104 = 90 boys
