if there are 37 more boys than girls and 63 students total,how many girls are there

Question

we need to find this answer out for ixl

Answer 1

x+y=63

y=x+37

x+(x+37)=63

2x+37=63

2x=26

x=13

y=63-x=50

Answer 2

x=number of girls 2x+37=63 2x=63-37 2x=26 2x/2=26/2 x=13 There are 13 girls.

Answer 3

63+37=2 times the number of boys

63+37/2=number of boys which is 50

now subtract 37 from 50

answer:13 girls
