Question

65% of the student in a school are boys and the number of girls is 735 find the total number of students in the school and also find the no of boys in the school​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the total number of students = x

• 65% of students = boys

• Girls = ( 100 - 65 = 35% )

• Given 35% = 735

• 35% of x = 735

• x = 735 * 100/35 = 2100

• Total number of students = 2100

Verification =

girls = 2100 * 35 % = 735 girls

Answer 2

Answer:

65% of the students were boys

and the remaining one will be girls

then 35% of the students were girls

Let the total number of students be 'x'

35% of x = 735

35/100×x = 735

x = (735 ×100)/35

x = 21×100

x =2100

Total number of students = x

Total number of students = 2100 answer first

No. of boys = Total number of students - No. of girls

No. of boys = 2100 - 735

No. of boys = 1365 answer second
