Before the new kids the ratio of girls to boys is 15:12 because there are 15 girls and 12 boys now you can simplify by dividing 15 by 3 and 12 by 3 to get 5:4 as your simplified ratio. As far as after the new kids. Since there is 1 new girl you do 15+1 to get 16 and there are 3 new boys so you do 12+3 to get 15 now 16:15 is already in simplest form so your answer is:
Before: 15:12 simplified as 5:4
After 16:15
Before: 15:12 simplified as 5:4
After 16:15
Answer:
4/5 : 15/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok let's write the ratio of boys to girls before the new students arrived
12 : 15
Simplify :
12/3:15/3
4 : 5
Lets write the ratio of students after the new students arrived
15 : 16
Cannot be Simplified.
We have two ratios
Lets write them as fractions
4 : 5 = 4/5
15 : 16 = 15/16
The new ratio should be
4/5:15/16
