Answer:

The no. of student failed is 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, the number of student enrolled= 216

Let us suppose number of student failed = x

Given,

no. of student passed is 5 times no. of student failed.

Then, no. of student passed = 5x

x +5x = 216

6x = 216

x = 216/6

x = 36

Thus, the no. of student failed is 36.
