Answer:

Boys to girls is 2:3

girls to boys is 3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

the ratio of boys to girls is 2:3 or 6:9 and the ratio of girls to boys is 3:2 or 9:6

Step-by-step explanation:

when you are doing a ratio, you need to put the two numbers next to each other. For example, for the first question you need boys first, then girls. there are 6 boys and 9 girls, so you put 6 and 9 with a : between them and get 6:9. sometimes, it is important to simplify. you find what number both numbers of the ratio can be divided by. it sound a bit confusing, but in this problem, wee can see that 6 and 9 are both divisible by 3. 6 divided by 3 is 2, and 9 divided by 3 is 3. therefore, 6:9 equals 2:3. I hope this was helpful :)
