Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be seen as a arithmetic series. It is the number of girls, let’s say g, plus the number of girls plus five boys. Deena, can be viewed as 1, plus 5 equals 6. Then Chloe, 2, plus 5 equals 7. And so on and on.

We can create an equation for this:

g+(g+5)=s

(s is the number of students.)

‘If the total number of students is 23;

g+(g+5)=23

We can solve this for:

2g = 23-5 ⇒

g=9

So the number of girls is 9, th number of boys is simply:

23-9=14

Does this help?
