      Solution

      ATQ, Let the total number of students in the school be 100x. Number of students who like cricket = 100x × 15/100 = 15x Number of students who like rugby = 100x × 50/100 = 50x Number of students who like football = 100x − 15x − 50x = 35x According to the question, 35x − (50x/2) = 250 35x − 25x = 250 10x = 250 x = 25 Total number of students in the school = 100 × 25 = 2500
