Answer:
The total number of boys and girls in a class is 32 if the number of boys is 20 more than that of girls: 2x + 20 = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of the boys and girls in a class = 32
If the number of girls = x
As per the given condition
The number of boys is 20 more than that of girls = x + 20
Number of boys + number of girls = 32
x + x + 20 = 32
2x + 20 = 32
2x = 32 - 20
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
So, number of girls = 6
And number of boys = 6 + 20 = 26
