Open in App

Solution

Total number of students in school = 4320

Number of girls = 2300

Therefore, number of boys = Total number of students - Number of girls

= 4320 - 2300 = 2020

Ratio of number of boys to that of girls

= $\frac{N u m b e r o f b o y s}{N u m b e r o f g i r l s}$

= $\frac{2020}{2300}$ = $\frac{101}{115}$ = $101 : 115$ [Dividing numerator and denominator by HCF of 2020 and 2300 i.e. 20]
