Answer:
Number of boys = 400.
Hope you understood.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the school, 5/8 of the students are boys.
Number of girls = 240
[Because possible outcomes are 2, either the student can be a boy or a girl]
Fraction of girls = 8/8-5/8=3/8
So 3/8 of the Students are girls.
So it clearly shows →3/8 of the total number of students=240
3/8×Total number of students=240
Total number of students = 8×240/3=640.
Total number of students= 640.
Number of boys = Total number of students- Number of Girls.
Number of boys = 640-240.
Number of boys =400.
