12 girls out of 30 were selected, so the ratio "selected:tried" if 12/30. This fraction can be simplified into

\dfrac{12}{30} = \dfrac{2}{5}

Similarly, 16 boys out of 40 were selected, so the ratio "selected:tried" if 16/40. This fraction can be simplified into

\dfrac{16}{40} = \dfrac{2}{5}

So yes, the ratio of the number of students on the team to the number of students trying out the same for both boys and girls

7 times what equals 1?
Arturiano [62]
For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
 We have then:
 x: unknown number
 Doing the multiplication we have:
 (7) (x) = 1

 From here, we clear the value of x.
 We have then:
 x =  \frac{1}{7} 

 Therefore, we have:
 (7) ( \frac{1}{7} ) = 1

 Answer:
 
7 times 1/7 equals 1
