Answer 2

Total no. of students = 600

No. of girls = 360

No. of boys = 600 - 360 = 240

A/Q,

1) Ratio of the number of girls to that of boys.

$= 360 : 240$

$= \frac{360}{240}$

$= \frac{3}{2}$

$= 3 : 2$

2) Ratio of the number of boys to the total number of students.

$= 240 : 600$

$= \frac{240}{600}$

$= \frac{2}{5}$

$= 2 : 5$
