We have a ratio is 4 girls to 5 boys. There are 60 boys, then, we have:

[tex]\frac{4}{5}=\frac{x}{60}\Rightarrow x=\frac{60\cdot4}{5}\Rightarrow x=\frac{240}{5}\Rightarrow x=48[/tex]

Then, we have 48 girls in the class.

Therefore, there are 60 boys + 48 girls = 108 students on Mr. Miller's team.
