Answer:

No, it is not proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the rate of proportionality the first thing we do is divide:

14 ÷ 6 = 6

So the unit rate for this problem is 1:6

or one boy for every 6 girls

Now we do the same to the other ratio of girls to boys:

35 ÷ 15 = 2.333333

So, in conclusion, this rate is not proportional

plz mark me brainliest if correct :)
