1)
1/6x = 30
x = 30*6 = 180 total students
:
2)
4:5 ratio means that out of 4+5=9 students 4 are girls
180/9 = 20 and 20*4 = 80 are girls
and 20*5 = 100 are boys

If 1%2F6 represents 30 students, then there are 180 students
4x + 5x = 180
9x = 180
x = 180%2F9, or 20
Therefore, there are: 5(20), or highlight_green%28matrix%281%2C2%2C+100%2C+girls%29%29
