Thank you for asking the question!
There is a class with 40 pupils, three-fifth are the girls. so the number of boys will be calculated as follows.
Suppose Total pupils= 40
Number of girls= 3\5
a Number of boys=?
According to a equation:
y + 3 y\5 = 40
8 y\5 = 40
= 40*5\8
= 25
Hence the total number of boys is 25.
