Answer: 28 boys and 16 girls
Step-by-step explanation: Divide 44 by 2 to get 22 subtract 22 by 6 to get the girls and add 6 to 22 to get the boys.
Answer:
44% of the students of a class are girls. If the number of girls is 6 less than the number of boys, how many students are there in the class?
let x be the number of boys, so (x - 6) will be number of girls.
total number of students will be boys plus girls : x + (x - 6) = 2x - 6
now 44% are girls which come from formula no. of girls divide by total students into 100: (x - 6)/(2x-6)*100 = 44
by solving we get x = 28 (where x is number of boys)
now x - 6 = 28–6 = 22 (number of girls)
add both we get total number of students = 28 + 22 = 50
Answer = 50
