Answer: The final answer is 30.

Step-by-step explanation: The question says the ratio is 2 boys : 3 girls. There are 18 girls. Well, how did you get from 3 to 18? You multiply by 6. But whatever you do to the denominator you have to do with the numerator. So, multiply 2 and 6. That gives you 12 boys and 18 girls. Adding 12 and 18 gives you 30. Therefore, there are 30 students in the whole class.
