In order to find out the ratio of girls to boy, we can create a fraction girls divided by boys and simplify them until we have a non dividable fraction.

Girls divided by boys = 28/20

The biggest common factor between 28 and 20 is 4.

Divide the nominator and the denominator with 4.

28/4 = 7

20/4= 5

So the ratio is 28:20 or equally 7:5.
