☞ The numbers of boys and girls are in ratio 5 : 4.
Let number of boys be 5M and number of girls be 4N.
☞ Number of boys (5M) is (equal to) 9 more than (plus) number of girls (4M).
- A.T.Q.
=> 5M = 9 + 4M
=> 5M - 4M = 9
=> M = 9
_______________________________
☞ We have to find the number of boys and girls.
Number of Boys = 5M = 5 × 9 = 45
And
Number of Girls = 4M = 4 × 5 = 20
_______________________________
45 Boys and 20 Girls.
