The ratio of females to male is 2:1

We will add up the ratio first.

That is:

2 + 1 = 3

The number of boys of boys can be gotten from the formula below:


\text{Number of boys=}\frac{\text{ratio of boy}s}{\text{total ratio}}* Total\text{ number of students}
=(1)/(3)*3300
=1100

The number of males are 1100
