There are 30 students in a class. For every 2 boys, there are 3 girls.
What is the number of boys and girls in the class ?
There are 20 boys in the class .
It is given that in grade 6 there are 3 girls for every 2 boys .
so we can represent the ratio of girls to boys as 3/2 = 3:2
again there are 30 girls in the class .
let there be x number of boys in the class .
so , the ratio of girls to boys become = 30/x = 30:x
this is equal to 3 :2 .
thus , 30/x = 3 : 2
=> 3x = 60
=> x = 60/3 = 20
number of boys , x = 20 .
