Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of any objects can be calculated by dividing the two objects with the common number.

Boys in the sixth grade = 35.

Girls in the sixth grade = 42.

Ratio of boys to girl = \frac{boys}{girls}

Ratio = \frac{35}{42}

Ratio = 5:6. (the numbers are divided by 7).

Thus, the ratio is 5:6 and not the 5:7.

Thus, Lonnie is not correct.

No... 35 divided by 7 is 5 and 42 divided 7 is 6 ... it should actually be 5:6
