Answer:

25 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x denote number of boys

and

y denote number of girls

According to the statement that total 45 people came,

x+y = 45      => Eqn 1

And total paid amount was 175

So,

5x + 3y = 175    => Eqn 2

For solving, We will use the substitution method

So, from eqn 1

x = 45-y

Putting value of x in eqn 2

5(45-y) +3y = 175

225 - 5y + 3y = 175

-2y+225 = 175

-2y = 175-225

-2y = -50

2y = 50

y = 25

Putting y =25 in eqn 1

x+25 = 45

x = 45 - 25

x = 20

As y= 25

So, 25 girls came to the dance ..
