Question

In a school 4/9 of the pupils are boy . There are 125 girls. How many boys are ther

Answer 1

Hey mate,

Let total people be x

then ATQ,

Boys = 4/9x

So, Girls = 5/9x

and Given,

Girls = 125

5/9x = 125

x = 25 × 9

x = 225

so total boys = 4/9 × 225

= 100

hope this helps you out!

Answer 2

Answer:

There are 100 boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of boys = 4/9

So,fraction of girls = 1 - 4/9

Fraction of girls = 5/9

Let total strength be x.

Then,

5/9 x = 125

x = 125 ☓ 9/5

x = 25 ☓ 9

x = 225 students

➡️ 4/9 are boys.

➡️ No of boys = 4/9 ☓ 225

➡️ No of boys = 4 ☓ 25

➡️ Np of boys = 100
