Question

Q) 60% students of a class passed in a test. If the number of students who failed is 24. find the
number of students who passed the test.

​

Answer 1

Answer:

60%passed

so 40% failed

40% or total students is24

so 40/100* x=24

x=24*100/24

x= 100

so passed students =100- 24 =76

Answer 2

Let the number of students appeared be 100.

Then, the number of students who passed =60

Number of failures =(100 - 60) = 40

If there are 40 failures, then total number of students = 100

If there are 24 failures, then total number of students = (100/40)*24=60

Number of students passed= 60 - 24 =36

Hence, the number of students passed is 36
