Answer:
138 of the students are boys, and 162 of them are girls. there are 24 more girls than boys.
Step-by-step explanation:
multiplying a number by its percent as a decimal gets you the percent of that number
300 x .46 = 138 boys
now subtract that from the original 300 to get the girls
300 - 138 = 162 girls
lastly subtract the girls from the boys to get how many more girls there are than boys
162 - 138 = 24
