Answer: Male = 25

Female = 19

Explanation:

Your question isn't complete. Let's form another identical question and solve.

A french class has a total of 44 students. The number of males is 6 more than the number of females. How many males and how many females are in the class?

Let the number of females be x

Therefore males = x + 6

Total students = 44

Therefore, x + x + 6 = 44

2x + 6= 44

2x = 44 - 6

2x = 38

x = 38/2 = 19

There are 19 females

Males = x + 6 = 19 + 6 = 25
