OpenStudy (anonymous):

28-12 = answer of how many girls

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if there are 28 members, and 12 are boys, you do not need to be told how many girls there are presumably the rest are girls

OpenStudy (anonymous):

btw, \(12:28\) is not the right answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):
