Step-by-step explanation:

How many girls are there if there are 350 boys.

Let g be the number of girls.

  • [tex]7:5=350:g[/tex]
  • [tex]\frac{7}{5}=\frac{350}{g}[/tex]
  • [tex]7g=(5)(350)[/tex]
  • [tex]7g=1,750[/tex]
  • [tex]\frac{7g}{7}=\frac{1,750}{7}[/tex]
  • [tex]\boxed{\boldsymbol{g=250}}[/tex]
