Answer:
Let 'a' be the students who were the winners and 'b' be the students who didn't win.
= > Total students = 45
= > winners + those who didn't win = 45
= > a + b = 45
= > b = 45 - a ----(1)
'a' students got 300 each and 'b' students got 50 each.
= > 300a + 50b = total money
= > 300a + 50( 45 - a ) = 5000
= > 300a + 2250 - 50a = 5000
= > 250a = 2750
= > a = 11
Hence the students who got participation part = 45 - 11 = 34
students who won = 11
