The mean weight of 150 students is 60 kg
Therefore, Total weight of 150 students = (150×60)Kg=9000Kg
Now, mean weight of all boys from the class is 70 kg and mean weight of all girls from the class is 55 kg.
Let the number of girls be x, then number of boys be (150 - x)
Therefore, Total weight of class = weight of all boys + weight of all girls
9000=(150−x)×70+55x
9000=10500−70x+55x
15x=10500−9000
15x=1500
x = 100
Total number of girls in the class are 100.
