  1. Answer:

    x=60

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let number of boys =x

    ⟹ number of girls D=150−x

    given that , (150−x) is x% of total(150)

    150−x= x/100 ×150

    150−x= 3x/2

    5x/2=150

    x=60

  2. Number of boys = x

    Number of girls = (150 – x)

    According to the question,

    ⇒150×x100=(150−x)⇒150×x100=(150−x)

    ⇒3x=300−2x⇒3x=300−2x

    ⇒5x=300⇒5x=300

    ⇒x=60

    so,answer is 60
