${\large{\bf{\orange{\clubs{\underline{Solution :}}}}}}$

Let the ratio be x :

${\sf{\purple{No. \: of \: boys = 8x}}}$

${\sf{\purple{No. \: of \: girls = 5x}}}$

The no. of boys is 9 more than girls.

${\sf{\purple{No. \: of \: boys. = No. \: of \: girls}}}$

${\sf{\green{8x = 5x + 9}}}$

${\sf{\green{= 8x = 5x + 9}}}$

${\sf{\green{= 8x - 5x = 9}}}$

${\sf{\green{= 3x = 9}}}$

${\sf{\green{= x = 9 \div 3 }}}$

${\sf{\red{\boxed{X = 3}}}}$

So,

${\sf{\orange{No. \: of \: boys = 8x = 8 \times 3 = 24 boys}}}$

${\sf{\orange{No. \: of \: girls = 5x = 5 \times 3 = 15 girls}}}$

${\sf{\orange{Total \: no. \: of \: students = 24 + 15 = 39 \: students }}}</u></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><h2>￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣</h2><p><u>[tex]{\large{\fcolorbox{green}{red}{\underline{XitzNobitaxX}}}}$
