Find out how many students like (i) Cricket (ii) Football
(iii) Basket Ball.​

Answer 1

➤ Answer :-

Number of students like Cricket $=$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \frac{3}{5} \: of \: 200$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{200}{1} = \frac{3 \times 200}{5 \times 1}$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \cancel \frac{600}{5} = 120$

$\Huge\therefore$120 students like Cricket.

Number of students like Football $=$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \frac{1}{4} \: of \: 200$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{200}{1} = \frac{1 \times 200}{4 \times 1}$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \cancel \frac{200}{4} = 50$

$\Huge\therefore$50 students like Football.

Number of students like Basketball $=$

$\dashrightarrow \tt 200 - 120 + 50$

$\dashrightarrow \tt200 - 170$

$\dashrightarrow \tt30$

$\Huge\therefore$30 students like Basketball.
