How would you scale down 10 boys to 14 girls to find the equivilent ratios?

You have to divide 10 and 14 by the same number to get your ratio. Example: 10 divided by 2= 5 & 14 divided by 2=7 so your ratio would be 5/7 or 5 to 7


In a tribe people favor boys much more than girls--For each couple if their first baby is a girl then they will continue to have babies until they get a boy--What is the female to male ratio?

In order to know the answer, you must assume a maximum number of children for each couple or you must assume that the liklehood of having either a boy or a girl is 50/50. Without these constraints then the question makes no sense as: Thus, first child is a boy, they stop. First child is a girl, they have another, if a boy then they stop. Total thus far is 1 - 0 , plus 1 - 1. ratio is 1 boy to 2 girls. But, if first two are girls then a boy, we now have 3 boys and 3 girls, ratio is 1 - 1. But if first three are girls then a boy, we now have a total of 4 boys and 6 girls, then we have 5 boys to 10 girls, then 6 boys to 15 girls and so on. But, if you assume that the odds of having a boy or a girl are evens, then First child is even money, if a boy, stop. First child is a girl, then have another, which by the laws of the 50 / 50 ratio would have to be a boy. So, if the village tribe consists of 100 couples, 50 will have a boy first and stop. 50 will have a girl first, followed by a boy. Total boys = 100, total girls = 50. ratio is 2 - 1.
