    The numbers of boys in one grade are 60.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    As given

    In one grade of 150 students.

    The ratio of boys to girls is 2:3.

    Let us assume that the scalar multiple of boys and girls be x.

    Thus number of boys = 2x

    Number of girls = 3x

    Than the equations becomes

    2x + 3x = 150

    5x = 150

    x = 30

    Thus number of boys = 2 * 30

    = 60

    Therefore the numbers of boys in one grade are 60
