The ratio of the number of boys and girls in a school is 3 : 2. If 20% of the boys and 25% of the girls are scholarship holders, the percentage of the school students who are not scholarship holders is: Correct Answer 78
Ratio of the number of boys and girls in a school is = 3 : 2 or 30 : 20
Let number of boys = 30 and number of girls = 20
Total students = 30 + 20 = 50
Number of boys who did not get scholarship = 30 × (80/100) = 24
Number of girls who did not get scholarship = 20 × (75/100) = 15
Total number of students who did not get scholarship = 24 + 15 = 39
∴ Percentage of students who did not get scholarship = 39/50 × 100 = 78%
