Answer:

Number of boys is 300 and number of girls of 500 in the school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ratio of boys to girls be 3x : 5x

Today number of students = 800 *[You have typed 900. I think it was a typing mistake because if we take 900 the question cannot be solved]

A/Q,

3x + 5x = 800

→ 8x = 800

→ x = 800/8

→ x = 100

Number of boys

= 3x

= 3 × 100

= 300

Number of girls

= 5x

= 5 × 100

= 500

So, number of boys is 300 and number of girls of 500 in the school.

Thanks !
