    The ratio of boys to girls is 4/3.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Hi, to answer this question we have to use the number of boys as the numerator and the number of girls as the denominator.

    The number of girls is: number of students - number of boys

    Replacing with the values given:

    70 - 40 = 30 girls

    So, the ratio is:

    40 / 30

    Simplifying:

    4/3

    In conclusion, the ratio of boys to girls is 4/3.

    Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
