Well first do 20 children minus 8 girls to find how many boys there are:
20-8=16
So there are 16 boys. Therefore we can write the ratio of girls to boys as:
8/16
Then we can simplify this ratio by dividing it by 8 to get:
1/2
So the answer is the ratio of girls to boys in the group in simplest form is 1/2.

atroni [7]

Answer:

-1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines are lines which have the exact same slope but different y-intercepts. This means any line which is parallel and does not cross will have the exact same slope of -1/6.
