Divide the number of girls by the total number of children (boys + girls).
To determine the fraction of girls and boys in the class, you would need to know the total number of students in the class and the number of girls and boys. Let's say there are 20 students in the class, with 12 girls and 8 boys. The fraction of girls in the class would be 12/20 or 3/5, and the fraction of boys would be 8/20 or 2/5.
To find the fraction of the class that are boys, you would divide the number of boys by the total number of students in the class. In this case, there are 12 boys and 16 girls, so a total of 12 + 16 = 28 students in the class. Therefore, the fraction of the class that are boys is 12/28, which simplifies to 3/7. So, 3/7 of the class are boys.
Since there are 2 boys and 3 girls there are 3 girls in a class of 5. For a class of 30 there is thus 3/5 times 30 = 18 girls John

A fourth of the class are boys, which can be expressed as a fraction as 1/4. Since the class is made up of only boys and girls, and a fourth of the class are boys, the remaining part of the class must be girls. To find the fraction of the class that are girls, you can subtract 1/4 from 1. 1 - 1/4 = 3/4 So, 3/4 of the class are girls.
17/30 ( this is in its sinplest form)
6/18 is the fraction which can be simplified, if required.
It is: 1/2 are girls
If there are 55 children in the classroom then it is not possible for 61 of them ti be girls!
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.

If the ratio of boys to girls is 12 to 3, then the total ratio is 12 + 3 = 15. To find how many girls are in the class, we divide the number of girls by the total ratio, 24 / 15 = 1.6. This means there are approximately 1.6 girls in the class. However, since we can't have a fraction of a girl, we can conclude that there are 2 girls in the class.
