Answer 2

Answer:

720

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of girls be x

We are given that number of boys are 160 more than the girls

So, No. of boys = 160+x

Total students = 160+x+x=160+2x

Now we are given that 45 % girls in the school

So, $45\% (160+2x)=x$

$\frac{45}{100} (160+2x)=x$

$7200+90x=100x$

$7200=10x$

$720=x$

Hence the number of girls in the school are 720
