Sofia's school organized a trip to Peru. At first, the ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls who planned to participate in the trip was 7 : 5. On the day of registration, 130 girls decided to withdraw and 130 more boys decided to join in. In the end, the number of girls who participated became 20% of the total children for the trip. How many children would visit Peru in the end?

	Boys	Girls	Total
Before	7x5 = 35 u	5x5 = 25 u	12x5 = 60 u
Change	+ 13 u	- 13 u
After	4x12 = 48 u	1x12 = 12 u	5x12 = 60 u

20% = ²⁰₁₀₀ = ¹₅

Since 130 girls withdrew and another 130 boys joined, the total number of children at first and in the end remains unchanged. Make the total number of children the same. LCM of 12 and 5 is 60.

Number of girls who decided to withdraw
= 25 u - 12 u
= 13 u

13 u = 130

1 u = 130 ÷ 13 = 10

Number of children that would visit Peru in the end
= 48 u + 12 u
= 60 u
= 60 x 10
= 600

Answer(s): 600
