Answer 2

Answer:

Number of boys = 648

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of students in school be x

Total % of students = 100%

No. of girls = 46% of x

$\frac{46}{100}$ x = 552

x = 552 x 100/ 46

x = 1200.

Total number of students = 1200

No. of boys = 54 % of x

= 54/100 x 1200

No. of boys = 648
