Answer:To find the number of girls we need to divide the total strength of students in accordance of their ratios. The number of boys is in the form of 9X and the number of girls is in the form of 5X, where X is constant for both of them. Hence, number of girls would be 5 x 32 = 160.

let the students be x.
so,
No. of boys - 9x
No. of girls - 5x
Total no. of students- 448
448 = 9x + 5x
448 = 14x
x = 448 ÷ 14
x = 32
No. of girls = 5x = 5×32 - 160
No. of boys - 9x - 9× 32 = 228
