Answer:
320 boys; 240 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
total no of students in the school = 560
the ratio of boys to girls = 4:3
now, acc to the question,
let x be the value of one student
therefore,
4x + 3x = 560
7x = 560
x = 80
therefore,
no of boys = 4x = 4 x 80 = 320 boys
no of girls = 3x = 3 x 80 = 240 girls
verification : 320 +240 = 560 students
hence, our verification is correct
