Answer 2

Answer:

The fraction is = $\frac{5}{8}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question,

Total number of students present in the bus = 8

The number of boys in the minibus are = 5

Therefore,

The number of girls in the minibus = 8 - 5 = 3

Therefore, the fraction of students which are boys will be given by,

The fraction of boys from the total students will be,

$Fraction = \frac{5}{8}$

Therefore, the required answer is $\frac{5}{8}$.
