In an examination, 35% of the students passed and 455 failed.
How many students appeared for the examination?
Answer Posted / varun dubey
let there are n students .
35% are passed.
therefore (100-35)% =65% students are failed.
65*n/100=455.
by solving this equation we get n=700.
Hence,there are 700 students.
