Answer :

it would be 28 more boys and girls

Answer:

ratio will change.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 girls and 8 boys in Mr. Augello's class.

The ratio of boys and girls are =  [tex]\frac{10}{8}[/tex]

                                                  =  [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

                                                 = 5 : 4

Now 5 girls and 5 more boys join the class.

so the new number of girls are 10 + 5 = 15 girls

the new number of boys are 8 + 5 = 13 boys

Now the ratio of boys and girls are = [tex]\frac{15}{13}[/tex]

                                                          = 15 : 13

Hence the ratio will change.
