      The number of boys and girls in a class is 480 and 320,

      respectively. When (x + 40) boys and x girls join, the ratio becomes 3:2. Find the value of β€˜x’.

      C 88 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      According to the question,
      (480 + x + 40) / (320 + x) = 3 / 2
      Or, 2(520 + x) = 3(320 + x)
      Or, 1040 + 2x = 960 + 3x
      Or, x = 80
