Question

the numbers of boys in a school is 334 more the numbers of girls.. if the total strength of the school is 572.. find the numbers of girls in the school

Answer 1

girls = X and boys = 334 + x so (334+x)+x= 572
=>x+x=572-334
=>2x=238
so girls = 238/2
=119

Answer 2

Let the number of girls be x
so number of boys is x+334

boys+girls=572
x+334+x=572
2x=572-334
x=238/2
x=119

So the number of girls in d school are 119
