in a school, the ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls is 2:3 and the ratio of the number of girls to the number of teachers is 7:4. what is the ratio of the number of students to the number of teachers?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
B : G = 2 : 3 G : T = 7 : 4
2 : 3 = x : 7
x = 4 2/3
B : G : T = 4 2/3 : 7 : 4
(B + G) : T = 11 2/3 : 4 | *3
(B + G) : T = 35 : 12
