The number of puplis is an illustration of linear equations, and there are 18 boys and 9 girls in the class

How to determine the number of boys and girls?

The given parameters are:

Total = 27

Boys (b) = 2 * Girls (g)

So, we have:

b + g = 27

b = 2g

Substitute b = 2g in b + g = 27

2g + g = 27

Evaluate

3g = 27

Divide both sides by 3

g = 9

Substitute g = 9 in b = 2g

b = 2 * 9

Evaluate

b = 18

Hence, there are 18 boys and 9 girls in the class
