On a school debate team there are 6 boys and 8 girls.
What fraction of the debate team is boys?
To find the fraction of the debate team that is boys, we divide the number of boys by the total number of students on the team.
Total number of students on the team = 6 boys + 8 girls = 14 students
Fraction of the debate team that is boys = Number of boys / Total number of students
= 6 / 14
= 3/7
Therefore, the fraction of the debate team that is boys is 3/7.
