Answer:
Number of boys = 21
Number of girls = 31
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of boys and girls in a class = 52
Let number of boys in a class = x
Number of girls in a class = 10 more than that of boys = 10+x
then, 10+x+x = 52
10+2x = 52
move 10 to RHS side
2x = 52-10
2x = 42
move 2 to RHS side
x = 42/2
x = 21
so, number of boys in a class = x = 21
number of girls in a class = 10+x = 10+21 = 31
Hence, number of boys and girls in a class is 21,31.
