In a class of 50 where the ratio of girls to boys is 3:2 . Sonika , a girl 30th from the top. If there are 16 girls ahead of her then, how many boys are after her? |
9 7 5 6 |
6 |
Ratio of girls to boys is , B : G i.e. 2 : 3 Total number of students = B = \(\frac{2}{5}\) × 50 = 20 B= 20 ( number of boys) G= 30 ( number of girls ) Now, Sonika is 30th from top and 15 girls are ahead of her . Till 30 there are 16 girls . That means there are 14 boys ahead of her . So, number of boys after Sonika = total number of boys - number of boys ahead of her = 20 - 14 = 6 |
