Question

Rs.10.89 was divided among 45 children such that each boy got 22p. and each girl
28p. How many boys and girls were there?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the number of boys receiving money be x and the number of girls be y

22x + 28y = 1080                  (1)

x+y = 45                                 (2)

Multiply (2) by 22, we get -

22x + 22y = 990                     (3)

Subtracting (3) from (1), we get

6y = 90

y = 15

Therefore, from (2) we get, x = 30

Hence, number of boys = 30 and number of girls = 15
