To determine the number of girls in the class, we need to use the information provided.
Let's assume the number of girls in the class is represented by 'G'.
According to the given information, there are 16 more boys than girls. So, the number of boys in the class would be 'G + 16'.
The total number of students in the class is given as 50. So, we can set up an equation to represent this:
G + (G + 16) = 50
Now, we can solve this equation to find the value of 'G'.
Combine like terms:
2G + 16 = 50
Subtract 16 from both sides:
2G = 34
Divide both sides by 2:
G = 17
Therefore, there are 17 girls in the class.
