We know that there are 16 girls. That is the first part of the ratio. Now, it says girls to students, which mean you have to add up the total of girls and boys together. 12+16=28. There are 28 students in total. Now, you have the ratio of 16:28. But, it says simplified...so we need to divide both sides of the ratio by a number. Let's choose 4 because 4 can go both into 16 and 28. 16/4=4. 28/4=7. So, the simplified ratio of girls to students in the classroom is 4:7.
Well just think, what is the ten thousands place? 1 right by 6. From this to round you look at the previous number 6, anything 5 or above will be rounded up making the 1 into a 2, anything lower than a 5 will become rounded down making the 1 stay the same, but instead making it into 10,000 So the answer would be 20,000
