In a school there are 1200 students if % of boys in a school is 60% then find the number of girls

Answer»

Answer:

Let NUMBER of boys be X and number of percent 60%

=> If 60% are boys in a SCHOOL

than, 40% are girls in a school

=> TOTAL amount of students =( x +1200)

60% of (x + 1200) is boys (x)

\frac{60}{100}  \times (x + 1200) = x

\frac{3}{5} (x + 1200) =  x

3x + 3600 = 5x

2x = 3600

x = 1800

Number of boys are 1800
