To find the number of girls in Mrs. Macon’s class, we can subtract the number of boys from the total number of students.
The total number of students is 28, and the number of boys is 16.
So, the number of girls can be calculated as follows:
Number of girls = Total number of students - Number of boys
Number of girls = 28 - 16
Number of girls = 12
Therefore, there are 12 girls in Mrs. Macon’s class.
