- Start with the ratio 2:3 for girls to boys.

- This means for every 5 students, 2 are girls and 3 are boys.

- Calculate the initial number of girls: \((2/5) \times 60 = 24\). So, there are 24 girls initially.

- 20 more girls join the class, making it \(24 + 20 = 44\) girls in total.

- Check the options:

- Option 1 (45): Not correct.

- Option 2 (44): Correct.

- Option 3 (30): Too few.

- Option 4 (56): Too many.
