Practicing Success
Out of 90 students in a class, 60% are girls and rest are boys. The average score in English of boys is 30% more than that of girls. If the average score in English of all the students is 56, then what is the same for the girls? |
62 48 65 50 |
50 |
Ratio of number of boys to girls is = 2 : 3 So , number of boys = \(\frac{90}{5}\) × 2 = 36 & number of girls = 90 - 36 = 54 Ratio of marks of boys to girls = 13 : 10 ATQ, 36 × 13R + 54 × 10R = 90 × 56 468R + 540R = 5040 R = \(\frac{5040}{1008}\) = 5 Average score of girls = 10R = 10 × 5 = 50 |
