    40 students total

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let s represent the total number of students. Then (3/4) s are girls and (1/4) s are boys. Using the info on boys, (1/4) s = 10. Thus, s = 40 (students).

    Check: Is (1/4) (40) = 10? Yes.

    Is (3/4) (40) = 30? Yes

    Is 10+30 = 40 (students) ? Yes
