✪ Question ✪
If 60% of the students is a school are boys and the number of girls is 972, how many boys are there in the school?
✪ Given ✪
Percentage of boys= 60 %
No. of girls= 972
✪ To find ✪
The number of boys in the school.
✪ Solution ✪
Percentage of girls
= (100 - 60) %
= 40 %
Let the total students be x.
According to condition,
40% of x = 972
⇒ 40/100 × x = 972
⇒ 40x/100 = 972
⇒ 40x = 972 × 100
⇒ 40x = 97200
⇒ x = 97200/40
⇒ x = 2430
✪ Hence ✪
Total students = 2430
No. of boys = (2430 - 972) = 1458
✪ Therefore ✪
There are 1458 boys in the school.
