Answer:

9:19

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is girls:boys, the ratio would have 19 as the denominator.

To find the number of girls, we can subtract the number of boys, from the whole class.

28-19=9, thus, there are 9 girls.

This gives us a ratio of 9:19.

To simplify, we find a common factor between the numbers, and then divide.

But, 19 is a prime number, its only factors being 1 and itself. So, the ratio is already in simplest form.

I hope this helps :) if so, brainliest would help me out a lot <3
