In a class of 56 students, 1/4 are in Team Gold and 3/14 are in Team Silver. Out of the remaining, 1/3 are in Team Bronze and the rest in Team Platinum. How many students are there in Team Platinum? Correct Answer 20

Given:

Total number of students = 56

Calculation:

1/4 of 56 = 14

3/14 of 56 = 12

Remaining = 56 – (14 + 12)

⇒ 56 – 26

⇒ 30

1/3 of 30 = 10

Rest = 30 – 10 = 20

⇒ Team Platinum = 20

∴ 20 students are there in Team Platinum.
