In a class of 50 students,35 are boys.what is the ratio of girls to boys in the class
The total number of students in the class is 50 and the number of boys is 35.
To find the number of girls, we can simply subtract the number of boys from the total number of students:
50 - 35 = 15
Therefore, there are 15 girls in the class.
The ratio of girls to boys can be expressed as:
15 : 35
Simplifying this ratio by dividing both sides by 5 gives:
3 : 7
So the ratio of girls to boys in the class is 3:7.
