Answer 1

Answer:

356,200 students appeared for the examination.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\bold{\underline{\underline{Assume\::}}}$

Let the -

• Total number of students be "M"

$\bold{\underline{\underline{Solution\::}}}$

Given that :

In a class Xth board examination, 68% of the students pass and the number of failures was 113,984.

We have to find the total 8of students that was present in that examination.

68% students pass the examination.

So, the students who fail in exam = (100 - 68)%

=> 32%

From above calculations we find that 32% students fail in the exam.

According to question

Percentage of fail students in exam = Failures in exam

Substitute the known values in above formula

=> 32% of M = 113,984

=> 32/100 × M = 113,984

=> 32M/100 = 113,984

=> 32M = 113,984 × 100

=> 32M = 11,398,400

=> M = 356,200

∴ Total number of students who appeared for the examination was 356,200.

$\large{\mathtt{\green{Solution:-}}}$

Let the total students be " x " .

Students whose failed in exams = (100 - 68)%

⇒ Failed students = 32%

_____________________________

A.T.Q,

⇒ 32 * x / 100 = 113984

⇒ 32x /100 = 113984

⇒ 32x = 113984 * 100

⇒ 32x = 11398400

⇒ x = 11398400/32

⇒ x = 3,56,200
