I hope I'm not duplicating this question.
The ratio of boys to girls in Class A is 3 to 4. The ratio of boys to girls in Class B is 4 to 5. If the two classes were combined, the ratio of boys to girls in the combined class would be 17 to 22. If the number of boys in Class B is one less than the number of boys in Class A, and if the number of girls in Class B is two less than the number of girls in Class A, how many girls are in Class A?
