Answer:

8 girls:)

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 10 boys and 8 girls. added the component digits of the ratio (5+4 = 9) divide the total by that number (18 / 9 = 2). Each “unit” of boys or girls consists of 2 people, so 5 units of boys is 10 (5 x 2 = 10) and 4 units of girls is 8 (2 x 4 = 8)
