Will medal and fan.. :3 Mrs. Fowler has 28 students in her class, and 16 of them are boys. What is the ratio of girls to boys? A. 4 : 3 B. 3 : 4 C. 4 : 11 D. 3 : 11

Okay, so first do 28-16 to find the number or girls in the class.

OpenStudy (readergirl12):

12..And btw I think the answer is A.. :D

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

So 12:16, then reduce. What do you get. (remember you're comparing girls:boys)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Don't rush to the final answer too soon

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

When you reduce 12:16, it will be 3:4. Therefore your answer will be B :)
