16

In a class of 60 students, the number of boys and girls participating in the annual sports is in the ratio 3 : 2 respectively.The number of girls not participating in the sports is 5 more than the number of boys not participating in the sports. If the number of boys participating in the sports is 15, then how many girls are there in the class ?

A. 20

B. 25

C. 30

D. Data inadequate

Answer & Solution

Answer & Solution

Answer:

Solution: Let the number of boys and girls participating in sports be 3x and 2x respectively.

Then, 3 x = 15

x = 5.

So, number of girls participating in sports = 2x

=10.Number of students not participating in sports = 60 - (15 + 10) = 35.

Let number of boys not participating in sports be y.

Then, number of girls not participating in sports = (35 - y).

Therefore (35 - y) = y + 5

2y = 30

y = 15.

So, number of girls not participating in sports = (35 - 15) = 20.

In three coloured boxes - Red, Green and Blue, 108 balls are placed.There are twice as many balls in the green and red boxes combined as there are in the blue box and twice as many in the blue box as there are in the red box.How many balls are there in the green box ?

A. 18

B. 36

C. 45

D. 54

Answer & Solution

Answer & Solution

Answer:

Solution: Let R, G and B represent the number of balls in red, green and blue boxes respectively.

Then,R + G + B = 108 ...(i),

G + R = 2B ...(ii)

B = 2R ...(iii)

From ii) and (iii), we have G + R = 2B

G + R = 2 ( 2 R )

G + R = 4R

G = 3R.

Putting G= 3R and B = 2R in (i), we get:

R + 3R + 2R = 108

6R = 108
