There are 3/5 girls of the students in a class of 5th graders. If there are 35 students in the class, how many are girls? How many students are boys? Express the solution as a FRACTION. *

 21/35 girls   14/21 boys

Step-by-step explanation: To find the number of girls, multiply

3/5 × 35 = 21 girls

You can subtract  35-21 to find the number of boys, or multiply

2/5 × 35 = 14 boys

Realizing that 35/5 = 7, we can multiply

7/7  × 3/5 to get the fractional equivalent of girls  21/35

and 7/7 × 2/5 to get the fractional equivalent of boys 14/35
