A class has the same numbers of girls and boys. Only 8 boys were absent on a particular day and then the number of girls was double the number of boys and girls?

Answer»

Let the number of boys = number of girls = x

2 (x – 8) = x

2x – 16 = x, 2x – x = 16

x – 16 = 0

∴ x = 16

∴ The number of boys = No. of girls = 16
