Hello!
Part A
To get the ratio of girls to boys you do
amount of girls: amount of boys
The answer is 260: 240
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First you have to find the total amount of students
240 + 260 = 500
To get the ratio of boys to the total amount of students you do
amount of boys: amount of students
The answer is 240:500
Hope this helps!
