Question 101

The strength of a school is 2000. If 40 % of the students are girls, then how many boys are there in the school?

Answer 1

As per the given information in the question.
The strength of school = 2000
Percentage of girls in school = 40 %
Percentage of boys in school = 100 - 40 = 60 %
Number of boys in school = 60 % of 2000 $=\frac{60}{100}\times 2000=60\times 20=1200$
Hence, number of boys in school is 1200.
