didnot passed either.If 144 students passed both. What is the
total strength of the class

Answer Posted / wareagle

Forget the 80% and the 70%. It is there to confuse you.

10% of class did not pass any test. 144 students passed both tests.
There for 90% must = 144 students. 10% + 90% = 100%.
Therefore 10% + 144 = 100%. So 144 = 90%. or 100% = 144/0.90 = 160
