In a class,there are six more girls than boys and the ratio of boys to girls is 2 to 5. How many students are there in the class ? |
Let number of boys=x Number of girls = x + 6 Given that x / x+6 = 2/5 ie, 2x+ 12 = 5x implies 3x = 12 ie, x = 4 Hence number of boys = 4 and number of girls = 10 Hence total number of students = 10 + 4 = 14 |
