Explanation:
Let the common ratio between number of boys and girls be x
Number of boys =7x
Number of girls =5x
As per the question,
Number of boys = Number of girls +8
7x=5x+8
Transpose 5x to LHS, we will get
7x−5x=8
2x=8
Divide both sides by 2
x=4
No. of boys =7x=7×4=28
No. of girls =5x=5×4=20
Total class students 28+20=48

Answer:
Given :-
The ratio of boys and girls are in the ratio of 9:5.
The number of girls are 12 less than the number of boys.
To Find :-
What is the number of girls are in the class.
Solution :-
Let, the number of boys be 9x
And, the number of girls will be 5x
According to the question,
⇒ 9x = 5x - 12
⇒ 9x - 5x = 12
⇒ 4x = 12
⇒ x = 12/4
➥ x = 3
Hence, the required number of boys and girls are,
✦ Number of boys = 9x = 9(3) = 27
✦ Number of girls = 5x = 5(3) = 15
\therefore∴ The number of girls are class
15
