Assuming that any given student must be either a boy or a girl (that is, no student can be neither a boy nor a girl), then 17 is sufficient. With sixteen students, you could have 8 boys and 8 girls, so there wouldn't be nine of either; adding the seventeenth student will push one or the other group to nine.
There are 18 girls and 6 boys in the class of 24 students
There are 8 boys and 12 girls and 8 students with glasses.
1380 girls.
27 are girls.
57 oops ! That's the boys. There are 95 girls.
80 boys and 30 girls

THIS IS NOT A ANSWER THIS IS JUST THE WORD PROBLEM! There are 340 students in Blueprint Middle School, 40% are boys. How many students are girls in Blueprint?
There are 8 boys and 12 girls and 8 students with glasses.
That would be a total of 335 students.
All you do is divide 48 by 3. that gives you 16. that makes 32 girls and 16 boys
1380 girls.
24 boys, 16 girls, which equals 40 students.

470
27 are girls.
