    Boy record = 25 feet 8 inches

    Girl record = 19 feet 19 inches

    Boy record / Girl record = 25 feet 8 inches / 19 feet 19 inches

    Change the feet into inches

    1 feet = 12 inches

    25 feet = 25 * 12 = 300 inches + 8 inches = 308 inches

    19 feet = 19 * 12 = 228 inches + 19 inches = 247 inches

    Boy record / Girl record = 308 inches / 247 inches

    Boy record / Girl record = 1.246 inches

    Boy record = 1.246 Girl record

    So

    it is 1.246 times greater than girls record.
