students in the class is 51, find the number of girls in the class.​

Answer 1

Answer:

18 girls is in class

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

girls:boys = 6:11

Total no of student = 51

sol-

Let the number of girls in class = 6X

Let the number of boys in class = 11X

A.T.Q

number of girls + number of boys = total number of students

6X + 11X = 51

17X = 51

X = 51/17

X = 3

so total no of girls in class = 6X = 6 × 3 = 18

if asked

Hence total number of boys in class = 51 - 18 =33
