Answer

There are $60-32=28$ girls, so $G=28$. Of the 32 boys, 19 sang, so the number of boys who did not sing is $32-19=13$, so $H=13$.

Explanation

What the frequency tree is showing

A frequency tree splits the total number of choir members into groups (boys and girls), then splits each group again (sang or did not sing). Any missing value has to make the totals add up.

Finding the number of girls (G)

Total members: $60$

Boys: $32$

So girls are the rest:

$$G = 60 - 32 = 28$$

Filling the missing boys branch (H)

Boys total: $32$

Boys who sang: $19$

So boys who did not sing:

$$H = 32 - 19 = 13$$

Quick check with the girls data

Girls who sang: $6$

Girls who did not: $22$

$$6 + 22 = 28$$

This matches $G=28$, so the tree is consistent.
