boys. If the number of girls in the school is
300, then the number of boys is
(a) 300 (b) 450 (c) 500 (d) 750​

Answer 1

Answer:

450 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

60% = 0.6

If there are "x" students in the school, then

x - 0.6x = 300

0.4x = 300

x = 750 students

750 - 300 = 450 boys in school.
