May I ask how to get the answer ? The 3/5 Is for the girl and boy in Hall. Total is 240 ÷ 5 is it ?
See 1 Answer
So we need to make the units the same for both ratios for the boys.
Common factor of 2 and 3 is 6
(2 x 3 = 6, 3 x 2 = 6)
So the top ratio multiply by 3 and the bottom ratio multiply by 2.
Now the units are all the same size and therefore comparable
