Answer:

11200

Step-by-step explanation:

since the total number of students in the school is unknown, let's represent it by "t".

if 10% of the total number of students are boys(1120)

=>(10/100) (t) = 1120

=>10 x t = 1120 x 100

=>10t = 112000

=>t = 112000/10

=>t = 11200

therefore the total number of students in the school is 11200

(which also means that the remaining 90% are girls and hence there are 10080girls in the school)
