Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let the original strength of the school be x.
2. It was increased by 10% during one year. So,
x×10/100=x/10
x+x/10=11x/10
3. It was increased by by 20% during the next year. So,
11x/10×20/100=11x/50
11x/10+11x/50=66x/50.
4.After 2 years the total number of students became 528.
So,
66x/50=528.
x=528×50/66=400.
5.So, the original strength of the school is 400 students.
