Answer 1

The total number of students and the number of girls is given

Total number of students = 45

Number of girls = 25

We have to find what fraction of the students in the class are girls

Fraction of girl students = $\frac{25}{45}$

Simplifying it we get $\frac{5}{9}$

So, 5/9th of the students in the class are girls.

The correct answer will be option b.

Given:

Total number of students $= 45$
