Answer 2

ratio will change.

Explanation:

There are 10 girls and 8 boys in Mr. Augello's class.

The ratio of boys and girls are =
`(10)/(8)`

=
`(5)/(4)`

= 5 : 4

Now 5 girls and 5 more boys join the class.

so the new number of girls are 10 + 5 = 15 girls

the new number of boys are 8 + 5 = 13 boys

Now the ratio of boys and girls are =
`(15)/(13)`

= 15 : 13

Hence the ratio will change.
