Answer:

1:7 , 2:14, 4:28, 8:56

Explanation:

Ratios act just like fractions, because of this, you can simplify ratios just as you would simplify a fraction. In addition, because they asked for the ratio of boys to girls, we know that they want the (number of boys): (number of girls)

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
