ratio boys to girls 2:7. 250 more girls than boys. how many boys

if there are 2x boys, there are 7x girls, so

7x = 2x+250
5x=250
x=50

so, 100 boys, 350 girls

Actually i figured out that if you say

50×2=100 50×7=350

So 350-100=250.

Thats how you do it and your answer is 50

Is helen right or is steve right? :/
