Question

in a class,60% of students are boys and there are 14 girls how many students are there in class

Answer 1

60%=21

40%=14

add both of above 21+14=35

Answer 2

Answer:

let the total number of students be x,

then, the number of boys are x×60/100 = 6x/10

and , the number of girls are 14

according to question,

x-6x/10 = 14

4x/10 = 14

4x = 14 ×10

x = 140/4 = 35

hence, the total number of students = 35
