For ratio questions, add the numbers on each side and use that as a denominator to find fractions:
If the ratio of girls to boys is 3:2, 3+2=5, so 2/5 of students in the 8th grade are boys. 2/5 can be written as 40/100 if you multiply both the numerator and denominator by 20, and 40/100 is 40%. Therefore, the answer is B.

Part 1
vekshin1

Divide bags of sand by gallons of water:

14 /6 = 2.33

21/9 = 2.33

The ratio is the same, so this means for every gallon of water you need 2.33 bags of sand.

Convert the fractions into decimals and you will get 7/3 = 2.33

The answer for Part 1 is D) 7/3

For part 2, multiply the gallons of water by 2.33 to get the number of sand bags needed:

12 x 2.33 = 27.99, which rounds to 28.

The answer is C) 28 bags.
