Answer 1

Answer:

490 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

7/12 of the students are boys, so this means that 1 - 7/12 = 5/12 of the students are girls.

To find the number of girls in the school, you multiply 5/12 by 1,176 to get 490.

There are 490 girls in the school.

OR

7/12 x 1,176 = 686

This is the number of boys in the school.

To find the number of girls, deduct 686 from 1,176.

1,176 - 686 = 490
