Answer

plz follow me plz

Let the common ratio between number of boys and girls be x

Number of boys =7x

Number of girls =5x

As per the question,

Number of boys = Number of girls +8

7x=5x+8

Transpose 5x to LHS, we will get

7x−5x=8

2x=8

Divide both sides by 2

x=4

No. of boys =7x=7×4=28

No. of girls =5x=5×4=20

Total class students 28+20=4
