Question

A group of 300 students were divided into small groups based on their year of birth.

• One-fourth of the students were born in the year 2000
• The number of students who were born in 1999 is twice the number of students who were born in
2000.
• The number of students who were born in 2001 is one-third of the number of students who were
born in 1999.
• The number of students who were born in 1998 is half of the number of students who were born in
2001.

Answer 1

Students born in 2000= 300*(1/4)=75 students

Students born in 1999= 75*2=150 students

Students born in 2001=150*(1/3) =50 students

Students born in 1998=50*(1/2) =25 students
