Answer:

177

Step-by-step explanation:

let,

art=5x

science=4x

commerce=3x

the no of science students=236

4x=236

x=59

so the no of commerce student=3x=3*59=177

Answer 2

The number of students in Commerce faculty are​ 177.

Given:

The ratio of students in Arts, Science and Commerce faculties is 5:4:3.

The number of students in Science faculty is 236

To find:

The number of students in Commerce faculty are​

Solution:

Let the ratio be x,

So,

students in Arts = 5x

Students in Science = 4x

Students in Commerce = 3x

Now, we have been given the number of science students, so we can find the value of x

4x = 236

x = 236/4 = 59

Now, we have to calculate the number of students in commerce

Students in commerce = 3x = 3* 59 = 177

Hence, the answer is 177.
