Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio of boys and girls in the class =7:5

No of boys is 8more than the girls

So

Let no of boys in the class =7x

No of girls in the class=5x

7x=5x+8

2x=8

X=8/2

X=4.

Total strength =no of boys + no of girls

=7x+5x

=7×4+5×4

= 28+20

=48.

Total strength in the class is 48.

Answer:

Total class strength = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys : Girls = 7 : 5

Number of boys  = 7x

Number of girls = 5x

7x - 5x = 8

      2x = 8      

       x = 8/2

       x = 4

Total strength = 7x + 5x = 12x = 12*4  = 48
