Question

in a class 60% of total number of students are boys and there are 14 girls. how many students are there in the class​

Answer 1

Answer:

Find the percentage of girls:

Boys = 60%

Percentage of girls = 100 - 60 = 40%

Find the number of students in the class:

Number of girls = 40%

Number of girls = 14

40% = 14

1% = 14 ÷ 40 =0.35

100% = 0.35 x 100 = 35

Answer: There are 35 students in the class.

x=14×100/40
