Answer 2

Answer:

The number of girls is 113 and the number of boys is 263.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that, the number of girls is x

According to the problem, number of boys is (x + 150)

Also, the total number of students:

x + (x + 150) = 376

=> 2x = 376 - 150 = 226

∴ x = 226/2 = 113

and, x + 150 = 113 + 150 = 263

The number of girls is 113 and the number of boys is 263.
