To determine the ratio of boys to girls in a family with 4 boys and an unspecified number of girls, we first need the total number of children. If we assume there are ( g ) girls, the total number of children would be ( 4 + g ). The ratio of boys to girls is then ( 4:g ), and the ratio of boys to the total number of children is ( 4:(4 + g) ). Without knowing the number of girls, we cannot provide a specific numerical ratio.
3+3 = 6
You add the two numbers together as the denominator and put one of the original numbers in the numerator. Example: The ratio of girls to boys in Class A is 2:3. Total number of children in the ratio: 2+3=5 You want to organize the information into: # of girls 2 ________________ = _____ Total # of children 5
If the ratio of boys to girls is 3:7, this means that for every 3 boys, there are 7 girls. To find out how many boys there are, you would need to divide the total number of children by the sum of the parts in the ratio (3 + 7 = 10) and then multiply that result by the number of boys' parts in the ratio (3). So, if there are 30 children in total, there would be 9 boys (30 divided by 10, times 3).
The ratio of girls to boys in this case would be 10:1
The ratio of girls to boys in the class can be calculated by dividing the number of girls by the number of boys. With 15 girls and 10 boys, the ratio is 15:10. This can be simplified to 3:2 by dividing both numbers by their greatest common divisor, which is 5. Thus, the ratio of girls to boys is 3:2.
2/3
2/3
There are 8 girls in the family.
3+3 = 6
1000:4000
1000 :4000
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! If three out of eight children are girls, then that means five out of eight children are boys. So, the ratio of boys to girls in the class is 5:3. Remember, ratios are just a way to compare different amounts in a simple and beautiful way.
Probability
The number of children in the average American family has dropped from 2.5 to 1.3. On average there are more boys in an American family than girls. In 2002 about 95,000 more boys were born than girls. The mother's age may influence this phenomenon: older mothers about 40 have fewer boys than girls. Teen mothers experience the opposite. Chinese mothers have the highest ratio of boys to girls.
