Question

in a team of player two third like football while one sixth of the remaining like cricket the rest 15 like hockey. how players are there in the team​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total no. of players in the team be x

Players like football=2/3× x

=2x/3

Remaining players= x- 2x/3

=3x-2x/3

=x/3

Players like cricket= 1/6×x/3

=x/18

Fraction of players like hockey= {x-(2x/3+x/18)}

={x-(12x+x/18)}

={x-13x/18}

={18x-13x/18}

=5x/18

Players like hockey=15

By condition,

5x/18=15

x=15×18/5

x=54

Ans- There are 54 players in the team.
