Expert Solution
Step 1

Solution )3a) girls / boys = 12/15

= (3×4)/(5×3)

= 4/5

4a) all triangle = 4 blue +  12 yellow 

                           = 16 triangles

Blue triangle / all triangle = 4/16

= 4/ 4×4

= 1/4

5a) females = total - male

                     = 21 - 13

                      =  8
