Question

    In a club of singers and dancers, 10% of the artists

    are absent on a particular day and 90% of the present artists are dancers. If 2,250 singers are present on that particular day, find the total number of artists in that club?
    A 35,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 45,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 25,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 30,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let, total number of artists be x. Total number of present artists = 90% of x  ∴ Number of singers who are present = 10% of 90% of x  As per the question, number of present singers = 2,250  ∴ 10% of 90% of x = 2,250 ⇒ x = (2250 × 100 × 100 )/(10 × 90) = 25,000  ∴ Total number of artists= 25,000.
