Question

4) the ratio of girl student to boy students in a class is 587. If the total students are 48 find number of girl and boy studant
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio= 5:7

total students = 48

let the ratio be = 5x:7x

so,

5x+7x = 48

12x = 48

x = 48/12 = 4

so total number of girls in class = 5x = 5×4 =20

so total number of boys in class = 7x = 7×4 = 28
