The ratio of the number of boys to girls is 5 to 4. There are 60 girls in the choir. How many boys are in the choir?

Ok so the answer is 75, if you have 60 girls and the ratio is 5:4 you would divide 60 by 4 and get 15, you would then do 5 x 15 to get you to your answer of 75. The guy who claims to be a math professor is wrong and the guy who says he is right is lying. Check my work if you want, I’m right tho.

5/4=x/60

x=(5/4)*60
x=75

um I'm confuse with the answers

Wait so what is the answer.I am asking if the ratio of girls to boys is 5 to 4 and there are 100 girls,how many boys are there?

Does anyone know?...

78

I am a professional math professor and the answer is 67, 75 is purely wrong.

1 + 1 = 2

5/4 = x/60

4x = 300
x = ?

4 times what is 75? Solve and get your answer.
