Question

1/6 of the class students are above average, 1/4 are average and rest are below average. If there are 48 students in all, how many students are below average in the class?

Answer 1

1/6 * 48=48/6 = 8 students are above average

1/4 * 48= 48/4 = 12 students are average

so no of students below average = 48 -(8 +12) = 48 - 20 = 28 students
