let no of boys be x
girls be y
12x+6y=900
divide both side by 6
2x+y=150........(1)
if
5x+10y=900
divide both side by 5
x+2y=450........(2)
multiply equation (1) by 2
4x+2y=300.........(1a)
substract (1a) and (2)
3x=150
x=50
substitute in (1)
100+y=150
y=50
total girl is 50
boys 50
total 100 students
