Question
Total number of students in a class is 2160, and the
ratio of number of boys to girls is 2:3. If the number of boys and girls is increased by b% and (b – 6)% respectively, then the total number of students in the class will become 2430. Find the value of b.(Can calculate approx. value)Solution
ATQ, Number of boys in the class before increase = (2/5) ×2160=864 Number of girls in the class before increase = 2160 – 864 = 1296 According to the question: So, the value of b is approximately 16.1%.

If a + b + c = 12 and ab + bc + ca = 47, and a, b, c are real numbers, find the value of a³ + b³ + c³ − 3abc.
If a + `1/b` = 1 and b + `1/c` =1 , then the value of c + `1/a` is
