Answer:
There are 36 boys.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of students = 60
For every 5 boys there are 3 girls.
We can find the number of boys using ratio and proportions.
Let the number of boys be x
[tex]\frac{5}{3}= \frac{60}{x}[/tex]
[tex]5x=180[/tex]
x = 36
So, there are 36 boys out of 60.
