Question 1:
In a certain school, 20% of students are below 8 years of age. The number of students above 8 years of age is 2/3 of the number of students of 8 years of age which is 48.
What is the total number of students in the school?
A. 72
B. 80
C. 120
D. 100
Feedback Let the number of students be x.
Then, Number of students above 8 years of age = (100 - 20)% of x = 80% of x.
80% of x = 48 + 2/3 of 48
80/100x = 80
x = 100.
