The ratio between boys and girls who are diagnosed with Autism is closer to three boys for every two girls. 1 out of 42 boys and 1 out of 189 girls. Boys outnumber girls with autism by 4 to, therefore, it is more common to boys. So, here is the answer. For every 2 girls diagnosed with with autistic disorder, about 3 boys are diagnosed. Hope this answer helps.
