Question

In Mrs. Nathan's class, there are 12 boys and 15 girls. What is the ratio of girls to boys in Mrs. Nathan's class? A. 1:12 B. 5:4 C. 12:1 D. 4:5

Answer 1

12:15

Both are divisible by 3.

12/3=4 15/3= 5

4:5 or "D"

Remember, the question said boys to girls, so it would be 4:5, NOT 5:4.

I hope this helps!
