    Answer:

    16 girls

    Step-by-step explanation:

    boys : girls : total

    5          4        5+4 = 9

    take the total number of people and divide by 9

    36/9 = 4

    Each number should be multiplied by 4

    boys : girls : total

    5*4        4*4     9*4

    20          16        36

    There are 16 girls

    Answer:

    16

    Step-by-step explanation:

    let boys equal to 5x

    and girls equal to 4x

    so 4x+5x=36

    X=4

    so boys are 5*4

    boys are 20

    and girls are 16

    so boys are 4 more than girls
