So, here's how you find out answers like this. You could do it in your head, but it's easier to understand if you draw pictures. But, in this case, I can't exactly draw a picture, so here's what I'll do:
i = boy
t = girl
Now, there are 26 boys.
i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i
And it says 8 more girls than boys. So basically, 26 + 8.
i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i + t t t t t t t t = t t t t t t t t i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i i
In other words: 26 + 8 = 34. So, there are 34 girls and boys total.
