Question

The students of Class VIII of a school donated Rs.2401 for Prime Minister National
Relief Fund. Each student donated as many rupees as the number of students in the
Class. Find the number of students in the Class.

Answer 1

let Rs donated be x

let students in class are also x
so,
x*x=2401
x* x= 49^2
x = 49

Students in class are 49

Answer 2

Let the ₹ donated by the students be x. Then,
according to question,
each student donated ₹ = number of students in the class
x^2 = 2401
x = √2401
x = 49
Hence, the number of students in the class is 49.
