Given:
Food samples for 300 boys or 480 girls
Number of boys who tasted = 45
Number of girls who tasted= 216
To find:
The number of boys able to taste the remaining samples
Solution:
As given, 300 boys= 480 girls
So, 1 boy= 480/300 girls
Or, 1 girl= 300/480 boys----- on simplification we get 1 girl = 5/8 boys
Number of people who already tasted= 45 boys and 216 girls
Now, converting the number of girls with respect to boys:
1 girl= 5/8 boys
So, 216 girls=( 5/8)*216 = 135 boys
So, total number of boys who tasted= 135+45= 180
The total number of boys who can taste= 300
Number of boys who already tasted= 180
So, number of boys who can taste further= 300-180 = 120
The remaining samples will be enough for 120 boys.
