Question

There are 120 students in class 7. it is known that 2 3 out of them like maths, out of which 35 are girls. also, out of total students, 3 5 are boys. (3) (a) what is the number of girls in the class? (b) how many students like maths? (c) how many boys like maths?

Answer 1

maths questions can be solved using unitary method.

Answer:

(a) The total number of girls in the class are 48

(b) The total number of students that like maths are 80

(c) The total number of boys like maths are 45

Solution:

According to the question, $\frac{3}{5}$ of total students are boys

number of boys = $\frac{3}{5}$ × 120 = 72

Also, According to the question, $\frac{2}{3}$ of total students like maths

number of students = $\frac{2}{3}$ × 120 =80

(a) The total number of girls in the class = total number of students - total number of boys

total number of girls in the class = 120 - 72 = 48

(b) The total number of students that like maths are 80

(c) The total number of boys like maths = total number of students that like maths - total number of girls that like maths

total number of boys like maths = 80 - 35 = 45

What is unitary method?

The unitary approach is a strategy for problem-solving that involves first determining the value of a single unit, then multiplying that value to determine the required value.
