    There are 60 students in a class. Three-fourths of them are girls. How many boys are there

    In the class, we have either boys or girls.

    Total students = 60

    3/4 of 60 = 60 * 3/4

    Since 60/4 = 15, we have:
    15 * 3 = 45 girls

    Boys = 60 - girls
    Boys = 60 - 45
    Boys = 15
