Answer

126

You are correct! My apologies, I used the wrong fraction for the number of pupils who like Mathematics. Let me correct Q2. (b) i).

Q2. (b)

i) How many girls like Mathematics?
Total pupils in the school = 360.
Pupils who like Mathematics = 710×360\frac{7}{10} \times 360

Pupils who like Mathematics=7×36=252\text{Pupils who like Mathematics} = 7 \times 36 = 252

Half of those pupils who like Mathematics are girls.
Girls who like Mathematics = 12×252\frac{1}{2} \times 252

Girls who like Mathematics=126\text{Girls who like Mathematics} = \boxed{126}
