Question

In a class of 35 students, the number of girls is
two-fifth the number of boys. Find the number of boys
in the class.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. boys be x

therefore no. girls is 2/5× x

no. of boys + no. of girls = student's

x + 2x/5 = 35

7x/5 = 35

therefore, x = 35 × 5 / 7

x = 25

therefore no. of boys in class is 25
