3/5 pupils in school are boys.its240 girls.how many children in school

Let x =the total number of children 2/5 of = 240 2/5*x=240 2x=1200 X=600 X=600-240= 360 X=360+240=600 The total number of children in the school is 600. Hoped that helped. Sorry if it's confusing, my teacher taught this to us really strangely. I tried to simplify it. So the total number of boys is 360. So all you have to do is add 360+240 to get 600.

2 / 3

Step-by-step explanation:

( x1, y1 ) = ( - 2, 3 )

Here,

x1 = - 2

y1 = 3

( x2, y2 ) = ( - 14, - 5 )

Here,

x2 = - 14

y2 = - 5

Formula : -

Slope = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

Slope = ( - 5 - 3 ) / ( - 14 - ( - 2 ) )

          = - 8 / ( - 14 + 2 )

          = - 8 / - 12

Slope = 2 / 3
