Answer 2

Answer:

60 boys and 36 girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys be 'x'

Then the number of girls = $\frac{3}{5}$ x

Total number of students = 96

So, x +  $\frac{3}{5}$ x = 96

$\frac{5x + 3x}{5}$ = 96

5x + 3x = 96 * 5

8x  = 480

x =  $\frac{480}{8}$

x = 60

∴ Number of boys = x = 60

and number of girls = $\frac{3}{5}$ X x =  $\frac{3}{5}$ X 60 = 36

So, there are 60 boys and 36 girls.
