Multiply total students by 2/3 to find how many like math:
Like math = 120 x 2/3 = 240/3 = 80 total students like math
Multiply total students by 3/5 to find number of boys:
120 x 3/5 = 360/5 = 72 boys
A) number of girls = total students – boys = 120 -72 = 48 girls
B) from above 80 students like math
C) number of boys that like math = number of students that like math minus girls that like math: 80- 35 = 35 boys like math
