Answer:
The number of girls is 1750
Step-by-step explanation:
No. of boys = 2030
No. of girls = 25/54 = 25:54
Let the number of girls be 25x and the total number of students is 54x.
So,
No. of girls + No. of boys = Total number of students
25x + 2030 = 54x
25x - 54x = - 2030
- 29x = -2030
x = 2030\29
x = 70
No. of girls = 25x = 25 x 70 = 1750
Hence, the number of girls is 1750.
