Answer:

111 girls

Explanation:

You have 924 people classified as 383 men, 356 women, and the remainder children. 2/5 of the children are boys, and you want to know the number of girls.

Girls

The number of children is ...

924 -383 -356 = 185

The 3/5 of children that are not boys are girls, so ...

girls = 3/5(185) = 111

There are 111 girls in the theater.
