Question

in a school 5 upon 9 of the students are boy and the number of girls is 800 find the number of boys please give me answer step by step

Answer 1

$1 - \frac{5}{9} = \frac{4}{9}$

There are 5/9 boys and 4/9 girls.

$number \: of \: boys = \frac{ \frac{5}{9} \times 800}{ \frac{4}{9} } = 5 \times 200 = 1000 \: boys$

there are 1000 boys.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

no. of boys =5/9 so no. of girls is 4/9

let the no. of students in class be x

4/9 x =800

x=800*9/4

x=200*9=1800

total students=1800

No. of boys is 1800-800=1000

hope it helps
