The ratio of boys to girls is 2 to 4, which can be simplified to 1 to 2.
To find the number of girls, we need to divide the total number of students (850) into 3 equal parts (1 part for boys, 2 parts for girls).
So the number of girls would be (2/3) * 850 = 566.67.
Rounding to the nearest whole number, we would expect there to be 567 girls in the 7th grade at GACA.
