Question 1102695
.
<pre>
Boys + girls = 34

B    + G     = 34

B    + {{{(3/5)*B}}} = 34

5B + 3B = 5*34


8B = 5*34   ====>  B = {{{(5*34)/8}}} = {{{170/8}}} = {{{21}}}{{{1/4}}}.


I have two answers for you:


    1)  The number of boys is {{{21}}}{{{1/4}}},    

OR

    2)  Your condition is wrong.

You may choose any of the two answers.
