In a certain year, the number of girls who graduated from City High School was twice the number of ..

Answer / guest

Assume that number of boys graduated from City High School = B

Therefore, number of girls graduated from City High School =
2*B

It is given that 3/4 of the girls and 5/6 of the boys went
to college immediately after graduation.

Hence, total students went to college

= (3/4)(2*B) + (5/6)(B)

= B * (3/2 + 5/6)

= (7/3)B

Fraction of the graduates that year went to college
immediately after graduation

= [(7/3)B] / [3*B]

= 7/9

Therefore, the answer is 7/9
