Answer 1

Answer:

It is given that each student donated as many rupees as the number of students of the class. Number of students in the class will be the square root of the amount donated by the students of the class. The total amount of donation is Rs 2401. Hence, the number of students in the class is 49.

Answer 2

Answer:

Thus, the total amount of donation is equal to the product of the number of students in the class and money donated by each student. So, money donated by each student is also x (as they donated as much amount as the number of students in the class). Therefore, the number of students in class is 49
