Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the no. Of boys be x
Then no. Of girls is x/5
Now,according to question
x + x/5 = 444
6x/5 =444
x=(444x5) /6
x=370
The no. Of girls is 370/5=74
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students = 48
Boys = 2/3
Then probably the remaining girls should be as,
Girls + Boys = 100%
i.e., Girls + 2/3 = 1
Girls =1-(2/3)=1/3
So, The Total boys count will be,
Total boys = (Given data)x(Total strength) = (2/3)x48
Total boys = 32
We know that , Total Girls = (1/3)x48
Total Girls = 16
Total boys + Total Girls = 16 + 32
= 48 (Total students)
That is the answer…!!!
