Answer:
⠀⠀⠀⌬ Group's Average weight = 38 kg
⠀⠀⠀⌬ Boy's Average weight = 42 kg
⠀⠀⠀⌬ Girl's Average weight = 33 kg
⠀⠀⠀⌬ Number of boys = 25
⠀⠀⠀⌬ Number of girls = ?
• According to the Question :
⇢ (Group - Girls) × Number = (Boys - Group) × Number
⇢ (38 - 33) × Number = (42 - 38) × 25
⇢ 5 × Number = 4 × 25
⇢ Number = (4 × 25) / 5
⇢ Number = 4 × 5
⇢ Number = 20
∴ Hence, Number of girls in group is 20.
