Answer:

240 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of girls be x.

160:x = 2:3

Multiply right side by 80--> 160:x = 160:240

x=240.

So there are 240 girls.

Answer:

There should be 240 girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ultimately, you want 40% of the school to be boys and 60% of the school to be girls which equal to the ratio 2:3.  Divide 160 by 2 to get 80 for the first part of the ratio, then you should multiply that number by 3 to get 240 as the number of girls in that school.

The ratio should be 160:240 when you put the number of boys and girls in this situation.
