We divide 60 by 2 as many times as possible to get 60 = 15 x 2 x 2. 2 is a prime number so we don't need to break the 2's down any more. Instead we break 15 down. 15 doesn't divide by 2 so we try the next prime number: 3 Divide 15 by 3 to get 15 = 5 x 3, and so 60 = 5 x 3 x 2 x 2.
6 i belive let me double check
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 2)(2x + 3)
=2x²+3x-4x-6
=2x²-x-6
So the ratio of boys to girls is 12:24.. now, is that an equivalent ratio as 2 boys for 4 girls? or 2:4? let's see.

you could start simplifying the 12/24 fraction by dividing by some common multiple, say 2, and get 6/12, then divide by 3 and get 2/4 and stop there.
then you'll notice that 12/24 is really 2/4 in disguise.
