Question

In a school, $30$% of students play chess, $60$% play carrom and the rest play other games. If the total number of students in the school is $900$, find the exact number of students who play each game.

Answer 1

Given that $30$% play chess, $60$% play carrom and remaining $10$% play other games.

Total student$=900$

Number of students who play:

Chess$=30$% of $900=\frac{30}{100}\times 900=270$

Carrom$=60$% of $900=\frac{60}{100}\times 900=540$

Other games $=10$% of $900=\frac{10}{100}\times 900=90$
