The ratio of girls to boys at the assembly was 3 to 5.
\n" ); document.write( "
Therefore \r\n" );

document.write( "\"G%2FB\"\"%22%22=%22%22\"\"3%2F5\"
If there were 132 girls at the assembly,
\r\n" );
document.write( "Substitute 132 for G\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"132%2FB\"\"%22%22=%22%22\"\"3%2F5\"
