There is a school of 850 pupils 3/5 of them are girls how many girls are there

(3/6) * 850 = ?

To find out how many girls there are in the school, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Find the fraction of girls in the school.
The problem states that 3/5 of the pupils are girls. So, you have to multiply the total number of pupils by the fraction 3/5 to find the number of girls.

Step 2: Multiply the fraction by the total number of pupils.
The school has a total of 850 pupils. Multiply 850 by 3/5 to find the number of girls.

3/5 * 850 = (3 * 850) / 5 = 2550 / 5 = 510.

Therefore, there are 510 girls in the school.
