Answer:
48 students in the class
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of girls to boys is 3 : 5 = 3x : 5x ( x is a multiplier ) , then
5x = 3x + 12 ( 12 more boys than girls )
Subtract 3x from both sides )
2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 6
Then
number of girls = 3x = 3 × 6 = 18
number of boys = 5x = 5 × 6 = 30
total students in class = 18 + 30 = 48
