Answer 1

♥️ $\huge\mathcal\blue{♡HeYa MaTe♡}$ ♥️

▶️ ${Let the number of boys and girls be <strong>x</strong>}$

▶️ so , 14 x + 5 x = Total strength

▶️ 19x = total strength

▶️ 5x = 1045 ( Number of girls )

▶️ x = 209

▶️ 19 × 209 = 3971 ( Total strength)

❄ ${♡Answer = 3971♡}$ ❄

Answer 2

Given ,

• Ratio of number of boys and girls in school = 14 : 5
• Number of girls = 1045

If no. of boys be = 14x

And no. of girls be = 5x

Thus ratio = 14x / 5x

Then ,

• 5x = 1045
• x = 1045 / 5
• x = 209

By knowing the value of x we can calculate the total strength of school

• = no. of boys + no. of girls
• = 14x + 1045
• = 14 x 209 + 1045
• = 2926 + 1045
• = 3971
