Jacob's class has a smaller ratio of boys/girls.

Given that,

Jacob’s class had 8 boys and 10 girls.

Olivia’s class has 9 boys and 15 girls.

We have to determine,

Which class has the smaller ratio of boys/girls?

According to the question,

Jacob’s class had 8 boys and 10 girls.

Then,

Total number of boys and girls = 8 + 10 = 18

Olivia’s class has 9 boys and 15 girls.

Then,

Total number of boys and girls in Olivia's class = 9 + 15 = 24

Here, The sum of these ratios of girls and boys is 18 and 24.

Therefore, 24>18 then Jacob's has the smaller ratio of boys/girls.
