Question

girls are 35 % of the total number of students and are 14. find the strength of the class.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Girls are 35% of total

So , let the total no. of students be x

Girls = 14

Boys = 75% of total                              [as girls are 35%]

So,

    14 + (75/100)*x = x

    14 + 3x/4 = x

    14 = x - 3x/4

    14 = x/4

    x = 14*4

    x = 56

    Total students = 56

Hope it helps U :)

Answer 2

Answer:

let total students be x

girls are 35% i.e equal to 14

then boys are 75%

here

14+75%of x=x

14+3x/4=x

56+3x=4x

x=56

Total number of student in the class=56
