In a certain school, 20% of students are below 8 years of age . The number of students above 8 years of age is
`2/3` of the number of students of 8 years age which is 48. What is the total number of students on the school
Let the number of students be `x`. Then,
number of students of r above 8 years = (100 - 20)% of `x` = 80% of `x`
`:.` 80 of `x` = 48 + `2/3 `of 48 `hArr 80/100 x = 80 hArr x = 100`.
