Question

In a class room 3/10 of the students are wearing blue shirts and 3/5 are wearing white shirts there are 20 students In The classroom how many students are wearing shirts other than white or blue shirts

Answer 1

Total number of students in the class = 36

Number of students wearing blue shirts = (1/6) * 36

= 36/6

= 6

Number of students wearing white shirts = (2/3) * 36

= 2 * 12

= 24

Then

Number of students not wearing blue or white shirts in the class = 36 - (6 + 24)

= 36 - 30

= 6

So 6 students in the class are wearing a shirt other than a blue or a white shirt. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
