In a class of 40 student, 40% are boys

Find the number of bays and girls in class?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have already been told that there are 40% boys, that means there are 60% girls (100–40).

The answer therefore will be 60% of 40, which is (60/100) * 40 = 24 girls.

number of boys = total students x percentage / 100

number of boys = 40x40/100 = 16 boys

Answer 2

Answer:

no.of boys =16 and no. of girls = 24

total students in the class are= 40

the percentage of boys are 40%

then,

the no. of boys are =40*40/100

=16

then the no of girls in the class are=. 40-16

=24
