Given :
- Numbers of boys in a class is 5 more than number of girls.
- When 5 more boys joined the class, the number of boys is double that of girls.
To Find :
- the numbers of boys and girls.
Solution :
Let the number of girls be x.
Then, number of boys = x + 5.
When 5 more boys joined the class,
Number of boys = x + 5 + 5 = x + 10
ATQ,
➪ x + 10 = 2 × x
➪ x + 10 = 2x
➪ x - 2x = -10
➪ -x = -10
➪ x = 10
Hence,
- Number of girls = 10.
- Number of boys = 10 + 10 = 20.
