Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

6+7=13

6:7=13

x:28

28/7=4

so you have to multiply by 4

4x6=24

24 boys and 28 girls

24+28=52

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets put the ratio like this: 6x (boys) : 7x (girls)

because we know that the amount of girls is 28 we can set them equal as so:

7x = 28

÷ divide both sides by 7

x = 4

now add 6x + 7x to get the total people = 13x and because x equals 4, we can multiply 13 by 4. Which is 52

HOPE THIS HELPS :)
