The ratio of students in Class X to Class Y is 2 : 5. There are 24 more students in Class Y than Class X. How many students must transfer from Class Y to Class X so that both classes have equal number of students?

The answer will be 12 students. 12 students must transfer from Class Y to Class X so that both classes have equal number of students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio is 2 : 5, we would multiply both number to 8 and get 16 : 40.

Now find the average of those two numbers: (16 + 40) / 2 which gets you 28. Now either subtract 16 from 28 or subtract 28 from 40 and you will get 12.

28 - 16 = 12 students

40 - 28 = 12 students.

the answer would be 484

step-by-step explanation:

just multiply 0.484 times 1,000 (formula)
