weeellllll.... almost ;) it says that there is 21 children already, and it's tryin to figure out how many girls there are FROM that 21. If there's 2 times more girls than boys, you will have to divide 21 by 3. Ok, that number will be the number of boys. You will then have to find the amount of girls. You take the number that we just got and multiply it by 2 to find the number of girls!
