Since 60% of the class are boys
40% of the class are girls
Hence, if the total number of students are x
40% of x = 14
40/100 × x = 14
x = 1400/40 = 35
Therefore there are total 35 students and
14 girls
Total number of boys = 35 - 14 = 11 boys

let total number of students in the class be x.
then, number of boys =60%ofx
=3x/5
A/Q
number of( girls +boys)=total number of students.
14+3x/5=x
=>14=x-3x/5
=>14=(5x-3x)/5
=>14=2x/5
=>2x=70
or, x=70/2
or, x=35
hence, number of students are 35
