`2/5` of total number of students of a school come by car while `1/4` of students come by bus to school. All the other students walk to school of which `1/3` walk on their own and the rest are escorted by their parents. If 224 students come to school walking on their own, how many students study in that school?

उत्तर
Let the number of students study in school be x.
Number of students come by car = `2/5 xx x = 2/5x`
Number of students come by bus = `1/4 xx x = 1/4x`
Remaining students walk to school = `x - (2/5x + 1/4x)`
= `x- ((8x + 5x)/20)`
= `x - (13x)/20`
= `(20x - 13x)/20`
= `(7x)/20`
Now, number of students walk to school on their own = `1/3` of `(7x)/20 = (7x)/60`.
Since, 224 students come to school on their own.
According to the question,
`(7x)/60` = 224
⇒ `x = (224 xx 60)/7`
= 32 × 60
= 1920
Hence, 1920 students study in that school.
