Solution

Fraction is the ratio of part to its whole
fraction in one section of girl = $\frac{15}{45}$
fraction in scholar section of girl= $\frac{12}{30}$
To know that which of the above are greater we do cross multiply and after doing the whose multiplication is big is greater.
$15 \times 30 < 12 \times 45 450 < 540$
$\frac{15}{45 < \frac{12}{30}}$
