Question 2

In an AMTI workshop, the ratio of number of boys to the number of girls was $$5 \colon 8$$. If there are total 65 students in the workshop, how many more girls were there in the workshop than boys?

The 65 students are divided into $$5 + 8 = 13$$ equal parts, so each part has $$\frac{65}{13} = 5$$ students. This gives $$5 \times 5 = 25$$ boys and $$8 \times 5 = 40$$ girls. The number of extra girls is $$40 - 25 = 15$$.
