Question

There are 12 boys and 15 girls in your class for new students three boys and one girl join your class what is the ratio of the class before the new students and after the new students arrived

Answer 1

Before the new kids the ratio of girls to boys is 15:12 because there are 15 girls and 12 boys now you can simplify by dividing 15 by 3 and 12 by 3 to get 5:4 as your simplified ratio. As far as after the new kids. Since there is 1 new girl you do 15+1 to get 16 and there are 3 new boys so you do 12+3 to get 15 now 16:15 is already in simplest form so your answer is:

Before: 15:12 simplified as 5:4
After 16:15

Answer 2

Answer:

4/5 : 15/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok let's write the ratio of boys to girls before the new students arrived

12 : 15

Simplify :

12/3:15/3

4 : 5

Lets write the ratio of students after the new students arrived

15 : 16

Cannot be Simplified.

We have two ratios

Lets write them as fractions

4 : 5 = 4/5

15 : 16 = 15/16

The new ratio should be

4/5:15/16
