Answer :

Answer:

394 of the students are boys

197 are girls

Explanation:

We are told that 2/3 of the participants are boys; therefore, we conclude that 1/3 are girls.

Therefore, to find the number of girls participating, we multiply 1/3 by the total number of participants (591).

[tex]\frac{1}{3}\times591[/tex][tex]=\frac{591}{3}[/tex][tex]=197.[/tex]

Hence, there are 197 girls participating.
