Question

44% of students of a class are girl.If there are 6 less girl than boys,how many students there in the class.

Answer 1

let total students be x. girls percentage = 44% of total students = (44/100)*x so the boys = x- (44x/100) =56x/100 given : no of girls= no. of boys-6 44x/100 = (56x/100)-6 44x/100 = (56x-600)/100 100 is cancelled from both the sides. 44x= 56x-600 44x-56x= - 600 -12x = - 600 x = - 600/ - 12= 50 total students = 50

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of students be x

Girls= 44%of x

=44x/100

Boys= x-44x/100

=56x/100

No. of students= 44x/100 =56x-600/100

100 will be cancelled both sides

44x=56x-600

44x-56x=-600

-12x= -600

X= -600/-12

X=50 students
