Answer:

Boys(B) + Girls(G) = 85    ----(1)

Mangoes = 380

Each boy gets 4mangoes

Each girl gets 5mangoes

4B + 5G = 380   -------(2)

from (1) B = 85 - G

Substitute B in (2)

4(85 - G) + 5G = 380

360 - 4G + 5G = 380

G = 380 - 360 = 20

from (1) B = 85 - 20 = 65

Therefore number of boys = 65 and girls = 20

Ratio of boys and girls = 65 : 20 = 13 : 4
