    10 boys, 15 girls.

    Let's simplify each option to see which one is correct.

    Option A:

    6 boys, 12 girls → 6:12

    6/2:12/2 → 3:6 → 3/3:6/3 → 1:2

    Therefore, this option is false.

    Option B:

    8 boys, 10 girls → 8:10

    8/2:10/5 → 4:5

    Therefore, this option is false.

    Option C:

    10 boys, 15 girls → 10:15

    10/5:15/5 → 2:3

    Therefore, this option is correct.

    Option D:

    12 girls, 15 boys → 12:15

    12/3:15/3 → 4:5

    Therefore, this option is incorrect.

    The only correct answer is C.

    Best of Luck!
