Answer: The number of girls= 20 and the number of boys=30


Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The ratio of girls to boys on a soccer team is 2 to 3.

=2:3

Let the number of girls be 2x

and total students will be 2x+3x=5x

Total number of players=25

[tex]\Rightarrow5x=25\\\Rightarrow\ x=\frac{25}{5}\\\Rightarrow\ x=5[/tex]

then number of girls= 2x= 2 × 10=20

and the number of boys=3x=3 × 10=30
