Answer:
There are 15 girls in the class.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 36 students in Mrs Keaton's sixth grade class.
If [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex] fraction of the class are girls then we have to calculate the number of girls in the class.
Since number of girls in the class = [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex] of 36
= [tex]\frac{5}{12}\times 36[/tex]
= 5×3
= 15 girls
Therefore, number of girls in the class is 15.
