To find the number of girls in the class, we need to subtract the number of boys from the total number of students.

Step 1: Find the number of boys in the class.
We are given that 5/11 of the class were boys. To find the number of boys, we need to calculate 5/11 of the total number of students.
Number of boys = (5/11) * 33

Step 2: Calculate the number of girls.
To find the number of girls, we subtract the number of boys from the total number of students.
Number of girls = Total number of students - Number of boys

Let's calculate the number of boys:
Number of boys = (5/11) * 33
Number of boys = (5 * 33) / 11
Number of boys = 165 / 11
Number of boys = 15

Now, let's calculate the number of girls:
Number of girls = 33 - Number of boys
Number of girls = 33 - 15
Number of girls = 18

Therefore, there are 18 girls in the class.
