In Little Flowers School, for a school drill, the students are divided into two groups of Lilies and Daisies. The ratio of Lilies:Daisies = 8:3. The ratio of boys:girls = 7:4. 60% of the Daisy group is boys.
What is the difference in the number of boys who are in the Lily group and the number of girls in the daisy group, given that is 48 girls in the Daisy group?
160
1.2x=48 = x=40.
So the number of boys in lilly’s will be 5.4 × 40 = 208
So the difference will be 208 – 48 = 160
