Answer:
There are 900 students in that school
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the no. of girls be 5x and boys be 7x (as per ratio 5:7)
Now,
5x - 7x = 150
2x = 150
x = 150 ÷ 2
x = 75
Now, No. of girls :
5 × 75 = 375
No. of boys :
7 × 75 = 525
Total no. of students :
375 + 525 = 900
Hope this helps you!
