Question

In a cricket academy, students are trained in
bowling and batting. Bowling coaching is given
to 2/3 of the students in the academy. Out of this 1/2
of practice spin bowling while rest practice fast
bowling. If the number of spin bowlers is 33, find
out the total number of students, the number of
batsmen, and the number of fast bowlers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

no. of students: 99

no. of batsmen: 33

no of fast bowlers: 33

Step-by-step explanation:

if there are 2 equal parts of the students learning bowling, and one of them (those who practice spin bowling) have 33 students, then the number of those who practice fast bowling will be the same as the other, ie: 33.

so, we have:

1. those who practice spin bowling: 33
2. those who practice fast bowling: 33

and, they both make up the number of students practicing bowling (2/3 of  all the students.

half of 2/3 is 1/3. so 33 is 1/3 of the students.

and 1 whole - 2/3 is 1/3, so the students learning batting will be 33 as well.
