Question

answer the following question in word problem

Answer 1

the number of girls is 20 and the number of boys is 40

Answer 2

Hey,sup!

As per the question,

Let the number of boys be x.
So the number of girls = 1/3*x=x/3.

So x + x/3 = 60.

=> (3x+x)/3=60.

=> (3x+x)=60*3.

=> 4x=180.

=> x = 180/4.

=45.

So the number of boys = x = 45.
And the number of girls= x/3= 45/3 = 15.

Hope it helps.
