Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Milk Consumption by each student daily = 1/3  Litre

Total milk consumption in a day = 57whole 2/3= 173/3 Litre

Number of Students = Total Milk consumption in a Day/ Milk consumption by a student in a day

=> Number of Students = (173/3)/(1/3)

=> Number of Students = 173

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

Milk Consumption by each student daily = $\frac{1}{3}$ Litre

Total milk consumption in a day = $57\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{173}{3}$ Litre

Solution:-

Number of Students = $\frac{Total \: Milk \: consumption \: in \: a \:Day}{Milk \: consumption \: by \: a \: student \: in \: a \: day}$

⇒ Number of Students = $\frac{\frac{173}{3} }{\frac{1}{3} }$

⇒ Number of Students = 173

Hence, Number of Students is 173.
