Answer:

288 girls and 192 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of boys to girls is 6:9

So, first find the total parts they are dividied into. 6+9= 15

480/15= 32. So one part has 32 students.

The boys are of 6 parts of 15 (as in the ratio). So 32 x 6= 192 boys.

girls are 32 x 9= 288 girls

they add to 480.
192 boys and 288 girls, pls mark me brainliest if i’m right :))
