Correct Answer: 1218
Solution :
Let the total number of students be $x$.
Boys = 60%
Girls = 40%
According to the question,
$\frac{40x}{100} = 812$
$\therefore x = 2030$
The total number of students = 2030
Now, number of boys = (total number of students – number of girls) = 2030 – 812 = 1218
Hence, the correct answer is 1218.
