Hey mate
Here is your answer :--
Let common multiple be x
So, the number of boys in class = 4x
and the number of girls in the class = 5x
According to given condition :-
4x + 5x = 54
9x = 54
x = 54/9
x= 6
So, number of boys in class :- 4x = 4× 6 = 24
and number of girls in the class :- 5x = 5×6 = 30
Final answer :- Number of boys and girls in the class are 24 and 30 respectively

let 4:5 be 4x and 5x
4x+5x=54
9x=54
x=54/9
x=6
Therefore,
Number of boys=4x
=4*6
=24
Number of girls=5x
=5*6
