b = numer of boys
g = number of girls
There are 15 more girls than boys.
g = b + 15
b + g = 323
b + b + 15 = 323
2 b + 15 = 323 Subtract 15 to both sides
2 b + 15 - 15 = 323 - 15
2 b = 308 Divide both sides by 2
2 b / 2 = 308 / 2
b = 154
g = number of girls
There are 15 more girls than boys.
g = b + 15
b + g = 323
b + b + 15 = 323
2 b + 15 = 323 Subtract 15 to both sides
2 b + 15 - 15 = 323 - 15
2 b = 308 Divide both sides by 2
2 b / 2 = 308 / 2
b = 154
