Answer 1

hey mate!!!!!..

so.

let the total number of students be x

then 4/5 of x =960

then x =960x5/4

x=4800/4

x=1200

failed students = total students -passed students

=x-960

=1200-960

=240

there fore the total number of failed students are 240

Answer 2

The total number of students who failed the test is 240.

GIVEN

Fraction of student pass = 4/5th

Number of students passed = 960

TO FIND

Number of students failed.

SOLUTION

We can simply solve the above problem as follows -

Let the total number of students be x

It is given that,

4/5th of total students = 960

So,

$\frac{4}{5} \times x = 960$

x = 1200

Number of students who failed = Total number of students - Number of pass students

= 1200-960

= 240

Hence, The total number of students who failed the test is 240.
