Answer:
there were 8 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio Form: 3:2
Word Form: 3 is to 2
12 boys = ? Girls
3 is for boys
2 is for Girls
12 (boys) ÷ 3 (ratio for boys) = 4
2 (ratio for girls) × 4 (answer from above) = 8
It means 2/3 of Boys are how many the girls are, why? Because the ratio is this (3:2) and there were 12 boys (3), and just 1 point lower are the girls, think!
The largest number is 3, so divide 3 to 12 (12÷3). you will get 4. Multiply 4 to the ratio of girls.
