Let the no. of students be X.
Boys = 60% of X .
So Boys = (60/100)*X.
So left 40% of students are girls and it is given they are 14.
So total students X= total boys + total girls.
X = (60/100)*X+14.
X - (60/100)*X = 14.
(40/100)*X = 14.
X = (14*100)/40.
X = 35.
So total there are 35 students.

boys = 64 %
girls = 100 - 64 = 36 % = 540
1% = 540/36 = 15
(total) 100 % = 15 × 100 = 1500
total number of students = 1500
hope it helps !!
