Answer:

in a class, 30% of the boys play football, 40% remaining play cricket and the remaining 21 boys play different other games. how many boys are there in the class?

number of boys = x

boys playing football = 30% of x = 3x/10

if your question is right, we’ll calculate the number of boys playing cricket from the remaining. so, remaining boys = x — 3x/10 = 7x/10

40% of these boys play cricket, i.e. 40% of 7x/10

= 28x/100

atq, 3x/10 + 28x/100 + 21 = x

=>(30x + 28x + 2100)/100 = x

=> 58x + 2100 = 100x

=> 42x = 2100

=> x = 50

total number of boys = 50 :)
