Final answer:

The ratio of boys to girls in the cast of a school play can be calculated when given the total number of students in the cast.


Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls in the cast of a school play is 1:5. We can represent this ratio as 1/5. If there are 6 students in the cast in total, we can set up the equation:

  1. Number of boys = 1/5 * 6 = 1.2 boys
  2. Number of girls = 5/5 * 6 = ~4.8 girls (or approximately 5 girls)

Therefore, there is 1 boy and approximately 5 girls in the cast of the school play.
