Answer:

15 boys and 25 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of boys (b) and girls (g) is given as 40:

g + b = 40

The number of girls is 2 times the number of boys minus 5:

2b - 5 = g

First formula can be rewritten as g = 40 - b

Then you can substitute this for g in the second, and you get:

2b-5 = 40-b

Which simplifies to:

2b + b = 40 + 5

3b = 45

b = 15

g = 40-15 = 25

15 boys, 25 girls.
