Answer 1

Answer:

360

Step-by-step explanation:

since 45% are girls ,the percentage of boys must be 55%

55/100 *x=440

=800(total no.of students)

total no.of students-no.of boys=no.of girls

• 800-440=360

Answer 2

Answer:

360 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of boys=440

%of girls in the school=45%

Let us assume the total number of students be y

Then no.of boys=55/100×y=440

y=440×100/55

y=800

The total number of students=800

Then the number of girls,800-440=360
