Answer:

165 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

we have:

462=a+b

a=girls

b=boys

a=132+b

462=132+b+b

462=132+2b

462-132=2b

b=165 = boys

Answer: There are 165 boys

b = 165

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call b the number of boys and call g the number of girls in the class.

Then we know that:

There are 462 students. This means that:

b + g = 462

We also know that there are 132 more girls than boys, this means that:

g = b + 132

Now we substitute the second equation in the first and solve for b.

b + (b + 132) = 462

2b = 462-132

2b = 330

b = \frac{330}{2}

b = 165

<h2>4). a </h2>

0.6 = 6/10 = 3/5

<h2>b.</h2>

0.42 = 42/100 = 21/50

Hope this helps you
