Answer:

35 boys

25 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

you will the total number of volunteers and divide that by the total number of "parts" in the ratio (7+5=12)

60 / 12 = 5

you then will multiply your answer (in this case, 5) to each part of the ratio (7 to find the number of boys, & 5 to find the number of girls)

5x7=35 boys

5x5= 25 girls
