Answer: Boys = 1024

Girls = 972

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys = x ...... ( 1 )

Therefore the number of girls = x - 52 ..…... (2 ) ( x < 52 )

X + x - 52 = 1996

2x - 52 = 1996

2x = 1996 + 52

2x = 2048

X = 2048/2

X = 1024

Substitute for x in equation ...( 2 ) to get the number of girls

1024 - 52 = 972

Now , number of boys = 1024

And number of girls = 972
