Question

A picnic is being planned in a school for Class VIII A. Girls are 60% of the total number of students and are 18 in number. (A) Find the ratio of girls to the number of boys in the class? (B) Percentage of boys in class VIII A ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of of students be x

therefore,

60/100×x=18

=>x=18×100/60=30

so,no of boys=30-18=12

so,ratio between boys and girls=18/12=3/2=3:2

percentage of boys=12/30×100=40%
