Answer:

12 girls are in the classroom.

Step-by-step explanation:

We find out that the ratio is 3:4 based upon the question.

If there's 9 boys then the ratio is incomplete however you just need complete it based on the information given.

So, 3:4

9:?

9 / 3 = 3

4 x 3 - 12 girls

Thus, there being 12 girls in the classroom.

To check:

9:12;

9 / 3 = 3

12 / = 4

So the ratio still ends up being 3:4 therefore 9:12 is equivalent and correct!

Hope this helped! Have a great day or night wherever you are, stay safe!

1/72 This is because the odds that, on two dice, two specific numbers get rolled is 1/36. But since the number has to be rolled on a specific dice, that doubles the fraction.
