Watch the following video to understand ratios better!
\n\n\nPart 1:
\nDivide both numbers by their highest common factor
\n\nPart 2:
\nDivide both the number of boys and girls by their highest common factor
\n$\\frac{\\var{boy}}{\\var{l}}$ : $\\frac{\\var{girl}}{\\var{l}}$
\n$\\var{ans21}$ : $\\var{ans22}$
\n\n$\\frac{\\var{student}}{\\var{boy} + \\var{girl}} \\times \\var{girl} = \\var{ans23}$
\n\nPart 3:
\nFirst get the lowest common denominator = $\\var{low}$
\n$(\\frac{\\var{low}}{\\var{number0}}) \\times 1 = \\var{ans31}$
\n$(\\frac{\\var{low}}{\\var{number1}}) \\times 5 = \\var{ans32}$

\nIn this case you need to divide the ratios by a common factor. Can both numbers be divided by 2? Or maybe 3 or 4? Keep dividing both sides until you think it can't get any simpler.
\nAlternatively you could find the highest common factor and divide by that.
