77 students G : B 7 : 4 
 11 units (7+4) = 77 1 unit = 7 
 7 units = 49 
 so there are 49 girls in the student council 
 hope this helped :)

JeffBridges · Answer

The ratio of girls to boys in the student council is 7:4, and the total number of students is 77. 
 To find the number of girls in the student council, first, you need to divide the total number of students by the sum of the parts of the ratio (7+4 = 11). Then, multiply this result by the girls' part of the ratio (7/11) to find the number of girls. 
 Therefore, there are 49 girls in the student council.

YanaMyles · Answer

There are 77 students in the student council with a ratio of girls to boys as 7:4. This means that there are 49 girls in the council. We found this by determining that each part of the ratio represents 7 students and then calculating the total number of girls based on their part of the ratio.
