    Step-by-step explanation:

    216 boys

    450 students: 20% girls, 80% boys

    450*20%=90 girls

    450*80%=360 boys

    Students having mobile phones: 40% (OF THE 90) girls, 60% (OF THE 360) boys

    90*40%=36 girls

    360*60%=216 boys

    [We honestly don't need to care about the girls without mobile phones as they are only asking how many boys have mobile phones]
