Question

given that 65000 student where present in the competitive exam if 8/25 of them were boys find the number of girls present in the exam​

Answer 1

44200 of them were girls

Explanation:

If the ratio is 8:25, we must find x:65000

In order to change the ratio 8:25 into x:65000, we must multiply 25 by 2600. So you have to multiply 8 by 2600 too

8 x 2600 = 20800

65000 (total students) - 20800 (boy students) = 44200 (girl students)
