The conservation club has 32 members. There are 18 girls in the club. What is the ratio of girls to boys in simplest form?

If there are 18 girls, then how many boys would there be?

14

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Good, so the ratio is 18:14. Now can you simplify that?

Jamal noticed that 3/5 of the children on the playground were boys. Which could be the numbers of boys and girls on the playground?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. 3 boys and 5 girls B. 5 boys and 3 girls C. 8 boys and 5 girls D. 15 boys and 10 girls

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

What did you choose for this one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

On this one it is saying that for every 5 kids, 3 of them are boys so only 2 would be girls.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
