Question

The ratio of boys to girls in a class is 3:5. There are 32 students in the class. How many more girls than boys are there?

Answer 1

Answer:

$3x + 5x = 32 \\ 8x = 32 \\ x = \frac{32}{8 } \\ x = 4$

$3 \times 4 = 12$

$5 \times 4 = 20$

$20 - 12 = 8$

Answer 2

Answer:

Total Students = 3x+5x =32

=> x =4

3x = 12 boys

5x= 20 girls

So Girls Are 8 more Than boys.
