Answer: A fraction of 2/9 of the entire group (math club) are boys with brown eyes.

Explanation:

The fraction of boys with respect to the entire math club is 1/2.

We are given that of the boys a fraction 4/9 have brown eyes.

With respect to the total group in the math club that means a proportion:


(1)/(2)\cdot (4)/(9)=(4)/(18)=(2)/(9)

of boys with brown eyes.
