Question

On a rainy day 16 students of the class got wet in rain. If 8% of the total class got wet,find the total strength of the class

Answer 1

Let the total number of students = x

therefore,

8% of x = 16

x = (16 × 100)÷8

x = 200

The number of students = 200

Answer 2

Total strength of the class is 200

Solution:

Given that,

On a rainy day 16 students of the class got wet in rain

8% of the total class got wet

To find: total strength of the class

Let "x" be the total strength of the class

Then,

8 % of x = 16

$\frac{8}{100} \times x = 16\\\\x = 2 \times 100\\\\x = 200$

Thus total strength of the class is 200
