x=total number of students
.20x = Number of boys
.80x = Number of girl If 80% are girls, then 20% are boys
.80x=800
x=1000 total students
.20x = .20(1000) = 200 Boys
.20x = Number of boys
.80x = Number of girl If 80% are girls, then 20% are boys
.80x=800
x=1000 total students
.20x = .20(1000) = 200 Boys

Let the number of students be x
Then,Girls=2/3x
According to problem no.of girls is 800
2/3x=800
=>2x=800*3
=>x=800*3/2=1200
therefore no. of students is 1200.
Then,Girls=2/3x
According to problem no.of girls is 800
2/3x=800
=>2x=800*3
=>x=800*3/2=1200
therefore no. of students is 1200.
