Given:

Number of boys = 30

Average age of the boys = 15.5 years old

Average age of the girls = 16.5 years old

Average age of the students = 16 years old

Define x:

Let the number of girls = x

Find the total age of the girls:

Total age of the girls = Number of girls x Average age of the girls

Total age of the girls = 16.5x years old

Find the total age of the boys:

Total age of the boys = Number of boys x Average age of the boys

Total age of the boys = 30 x 15.5

Total age of the boys = 465 years old

Find the total number of students:

Total number of students = 30 + x

Find the total age of the students:

Total age of the students = Total Number  x Average age of the students

Total age of the students = 16 (30 + x)

Total age of the students = 480 + 16x

Solve x:

16.5x + 465 = 480 + 16x

0.5x = 15

x = 30

Answer: There are 30 girls.
