Question

In a math class of 32 students, there are 12 female students. Which of the following options represent(s) a ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls in the class?

3/5
0.6
5/3
1.67

Answer 1

5/3, you take away 12 from 32 which leaves you with 20 and as it says a ratio of the number of boys to girls it would be 20:12 then you would simplify this to get 5:3

hope this helps
