In a class there are 20 boys and 15 girls. The ratio of boys to girls is:
To find the ratio of boys to girls, we simply put the number of boys first, followed by the number of girls. So, it's 20 : 15. However, to simplify the ratio, we can find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 20 and 15 and divide both numbers by it:

GCD of 20 and 15 is 5.
Divide both numbers by 5: 20 ÷ 5 = 4, 15 ÷ 5 = 3.
So, the simplified ratio is 4 : 3, which corresponds to option (a).

Multilingualism- It refers to the "use of one or more than one language" by a single person or a group of people.

Key Points

• Multilingualism in teaching history
  • If a teacher promotes multilingualism in the classroom, it will have a good impact on the children's academic achievement. It will also improve one's social and emotional health. This can be done either passively (by allowing pupils to speak in their original language) or actively (by incorporating multilingual practices into the teaching process).
  • Students in a multilingual classroom may come from a variety of linguistic and cultural origins speak one language at home and another at school or are learning the language of instruction as a second language.
  • Classrooms that promote multilingualism help create positive identities connected with their home cultures in addition to boosting academic performance. In reality, language as a resource approach means that the teacher should use students' native language as a tool for thinking and communicating while both acquiring and developing fluency in the target language.

Hence, we can conclude that teachers can use multilingualism by introducing important terms in history like monuments, inscriptions, archaeological sources, etc. in the language of the child and use them in the class because every child feels secure and accepted by adhering to the use of multilingualism as a resource.
