Lets break this down.

We are given the amount of students, which is 33, and so far the amount of boys in the class, which is 4. This can easily be written as
(4)/(33). Now, we have a remainder of 29 students (most likely them being girls). This means that the fraction of the class that are girls would be
(29)/(33).

Hope this helps!
