Question 65

What is the total number of boys who are enrolled in Dancing ?

Solution

Boys : Girls = 7 : 5 
No. of boys = 7/12 * 1560 = 910
No. of girls = 650
No. of boys enrolled in only Dancing = 910/5 = 182
No. of girls in only Painting = 650/5 = 130
No. of boys in only singing = 91
No. of girls in both singing and dancing = 24/100 * 650 = 156
No. of girls in only Singing = 91*2 = 182
No. of boys in all three = 1/13 * 910 = 70
No. of girls in both dancing and painting = 8/100 * 650 = 52
No. of girls in only dancing = 650/10 = 65
So, no. of boys in both dancing and painting = 2*52 = 104
No. of girls in all three = 65



No. of boys in both singing and dancing = 156/2 = 78
No. of boys in only painting = 385

​Total number of boys enrolled in Dancing = 434
