No. of boys = 350
fraction of girls = 3/5
fraction of boys = 1 -3/5 = 2/5
let total no. of students be x
thus 2x/5 = 350
x = 350* 5/2= 875
no. of girls = 875 * 3/5 = 525 (ans)
fraction of girls = 3/5

No. of boys = 350
girls = 3/5
boys = 1 -3/5 = 2/5
let total no. of students be x
no: of boys = 350 i.e. total strength × 2/5
thus 2x/5 = 350
x = 350 × 5/2= 875
no. of girls = 875 × 3/5 = 525
