Question

There are 32 students in a class . If the number of girls are 6 more than the numbers of boys, find the numbers​

Answer 1

boys are 13 and girls are 19

Explanation:

Suppose no. of boys is - x

then no. of girls will be = x+6

so,

(x) + (x+6) = 32

2x+ 6 = 32

2x= 32-6

2x = 26

x= 26÷ 2

x= 13

Answer 2

13 boys and 19 girls

Explanation:

1x = number of boys

(1x+6) = number of girls

boys + girls = 32

x+(x+6) = 32

2x+6=32

2x=26

x=13

Number of boys:

1(13) = 13 boys

Number of Girls:

x(13)+6 = 19 Girls
