Answer:

there are 15 girls in the club

g-7 represents the number of boys

Step-by-step explanation:

if there are seven more girls than boys, it means that there are seven less boys than girls, hence the expression g-7

to find the number of girls, the following equation can be made

g +(g-7)=23

2g-7 =23

2g=30

g=15
