Answer 1

$\huge\mathsf{Given \ -}$
$<i>$
60 % = Boys

Total Girls = 120

Now,

Let the total number of students be x.

Girls percentage = ( 100 - 60 ) % = 40 %

•°•

40 % of Total students = 120

40 % of x = 120

40 / 100 × x = 120

x = ( 120 × 100 ) / 40

x = 300

Answer 2

ANSWER: 300 are total students.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of students be x.

If 60% students are boys,it means girls will be 40%.

Therefor,

120 multiplied by 100 by x is equal to 40%

120.100/x =40%

12000=40x

x =12000/40

x = 300
