Question
The total strength of school A is 20% more than that of
school B. In school A and B, out of total number of students, 10% and 20% respectively are girls. The number of boys in school A is how much percent more/less than that in school B?Solution
Let the total number of students in school B be ‘x’. Therefore, total number of students in school A = 1.2x Number of boys in school A = 0.90 × 1.2x = 1.08x Number of boys in school B = 0.8x Required % = [(1.08x – 0.8x)/0.8x] × 100 = 35%
