One week they made 33% red kites, 25% green kites, and the rest blue kites. if they made 294 blue kites, how many kites did they make in all?

Altogether is 700 kites

Step-by-step explanation:

1st method:

blue kites = 100%-33%-25%

= 42%

42% = 294

1% = 7 kites

red kites = 33%

= 33 × 7

= 231 kites

green kites = 25%

= 25 × 7

= 175 kites

total = 294 + 231 + 175

= 700 kites

2nd method:

1% = 7 kites

100% = 7 × 100

= 700 kites

36 girls

step-by-step explanation:

the 48 boys is 4 parts of the ratio

divide 48 by 4 to obtain one part of the ratio

= 12 ← 1 part of the ratio

3 parts = 3 × 12 = 36 ← number of girls
