    Set up a proportion:

    5 : 3 = X : 24

    3 * 8 = 24

    5 * 8 = 40

    Therefore, there are 40 girls in the chorus.

    40.

    Explanation:

    Let the number of girls be X.

    number of boys = 24

    The ratio = 5 (girls) : 3 (boys)

    Setting up a proportion,

    we have,

    5 : 3 = X : 24

    3 x 8 = 24

    X = 5 x 8

    = 40

    There are 40 girls in the chorus.
