The ratio of boys to girls in a club is 3:2. Which of the following could be the total number of members in the club?

Question

Accepted Answer

The ratio of boys to girls is given as $$3:2$$.  
   - The total number of members must be a multiple of the sum of the ratio terms: $$3 + 2 = 5$$.

Check which option is divisible by 5:  
   - $$23 \div 5 = 4.6$$ (not a multiple).  
   - $$25 \div 5 = 5$$ (a multiple).  
   - $$27 \div 5 = 5.4$$ (not a multiple).  
   - $$29 \div 5 = 5.8$$ (not a multiple).

Therefore, the total number of members that satisfies the condition is **25**, as it is a multiple of 5.
