Answer:
200
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the no. of total children in a school be x
No. of boys in the school= 3/5of the children= 3/5×x=3x/5
No. of girls in the school= 800
A/q
x= 3x/5+800
x-3x/5=800
x×5/1×5-3x×1/5×1=800
5x/5-3x/5=800
2x/5=800
2x=800×5
2x=4000
x=4000/2
x=2000
No. of boys in the school= 2000
