Question

In a school there are 1260 students. If there are 52 boys more than the number of the girls, find the number of boys and girls in the school.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the girls=x

Boys=x+52

Here

x+x+52=1260(given)

2x=1260-52=1208

x=1208/2=604

Girls=604

Boys=604+52=656

Answer 2

Answer:

Boys 656 and Girls 604

Step-by-step explanation:

Total students = 1260

given that,

No. of boys are more than girls by 52.

So,

let girls be X and boys be X+52

In order to find the no. of boys and girls

52+X+X=1260

52+2X=1260

2X= 1260-52

2X = 1208

X=1208/2

= 604 girls

boys = X+2

= 604 +52 = 656
