are boys?​

Answer 1

In a class of 52 students, the number of boys is, of the number of girls. The number of boys is 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given total number of students is 52

Given the number of boys is same as number of girls.

Let the number of boys = number of girls = x

Number of boys +Number of girls = Total number of students

$\Rightarrow \textrm{x}+\textrm{x}=52$

$\Rightarrow 2\textrm{x}=52$

$\Rightarrow \textrm{x}=\dfrac{52}{2}$

$\Rightarrow \textrm{x}=26$

So Number of boys = Number of girls = 26
