    Step-by-step explanation:

    Givens

    Ratio

    25 girls

    75 boys.

    Class size = 87 boys

    Proportion

    25 girls / 75 boys = x / Class Size

    Solution

    Class size = 87 boys

    25/75 = x / 87 Multiply both sides by 87

    25 * 87 / 75 = 87 x / 87 Multiply 87 * 25

    2175 / 75 = x Divide by 75

    29 = x
