Given:

Number of students = 35

Two out of every five boys in the club are boys.

To find:

The number of students in the club that are boys.

Solution:

Two out of every five boys in the club are boys. It means, the ratio of boys to the total number of student is 2:5.

Let the number of boys be 2x and number of students be 5x.

According to the question,


5x=35


x=7

Now, the number of boys is


2x=2(7)


2x=14

Therefore, 14 students in the club are boys.
