Question

35% of the students who take part in a creative writing competition are boys. If 140 boys take part in the competition, find the total number of students who take part in it.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of students be x.

Number of boys = 35/100 X x = 140

:- 35x/100 = 140

:- 35x = 14000

:- x = 14000/35

:- x = 400

Answer 2

Let the number of students be x

then

35% of x =140

x*35/100=140

x=140*100/35

x=400

So the total number of students are 400 students .
