Answer:


\huge {\fbox{ \sf{495}}}

Explanation:


\star{ } Total numbers of students = 1650


\star Total percentage of boys = 70%

First , finding the total number of boys :


\hookrightarrow{ \sf{70 \: \% \: of \: 1650}}


\hookrightarrow{ \sf{ (70)/(100) * 1650 }}


\hookrightarrow{ \sf{1155}}

The total number of boys in a school = 1155

Now, finding the total number of girls :


\sf{ \mapsto{ Total \: number \: of \: student \: - \: Total \: number \: of \: boys}}


\mapsto{ \sf{1650 - 1155}}


\mapsto{ \sf{495}}

There are 495 girls in the school.

Hope I helped!

Best wishes ! :D
