Question

Mr Rodelius 6th hour class has 16 girls and 6 boys. What is the ratio of boys to girls?

Answer 1

From the present question, it was given the number of girls and boys from a class. It is 16 and 6, respectively.

The ratio of boys and girls is given by:

`R=\frac{N\degree_{\text{boys}}}{N\degree_{\text{girls}}}=(6)/(16)`

We can perform the calculation as follows:

`R=0.375`

From the present solution, we conclude that the ratio of boys to girls in the class is 0.375
