Question

There are 3 more boys than girls in a class and the total number of students 33 , find the number of girls and boys​

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of girls = 15

and

Number of boys = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of girls be 'x'

∵ Number of boys = Number of girls + 3,

Number of boys = x + 3

Total number of students = Number of boys + Number of girls

33 = (x + 3) + (x)

33 = 2x + 3

33 - 3 = 2x

30 = 2x

x = 30/2

x = 15

∴ Number of girls = 15

and Number of boys = 15 + 3

                                  = 18
