Question

In a school , 25 % of the total number of students use school transport. If the number of students who do not use school transport is 900 , find the number of students in the school .

Answer 1

there is 1200 numbers of students

Answer 2

Given,

          No. of students who don't use school transport = 900

Let the total number of students in the school be = n

Then, the no. of students who use school transport = 25% of n

=> (Students using transport) + (Students not using transport) = (Total no. of students)

=> (25% * n) + (900) = n

=>25n + 90,000 = 100n {Taking LCM}

=>75n = 90,000

=>n=1200
