+677 Hello Guest,
In Fizic school there was a math competition, with 5/7 of the students in the whole high school participating.
There were 3 rounds to master in order to win the tournament.
From the first to the 2nd round only 1/6 of the whole students who participated made it, from the 2nd round to the 3rd round only 16/400.
This tournament was won by 5 students in total.
Find out the number of students who participated and the number of students in Fizic High School.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Students in Fizic High School \(\Rightarrow\) 1050 students
Students that participated \(\Rightarrow\) 750 students
Shorten the fraction \(\frac{16}{400}\) into \(\frac{1}{25}\) .
At the end 5 students won the tournament.
\(\mbox {Multiply 5 by 25 and divide 1. }\)
\(5 \cdot 25 = 125\)
\(125 : 1 = 125 \mbox { (Any number divided by 1 is the same.) }\)
\(\mbox {Multiply 125 by 6 and divide 1. }\)
\(125 \cdot 6 = 750\)
\(750 : 1 = 750 \mbox { (Any number divided by 1 is the same.) }\)
Thus, 750 students from Fizic High School participated.
\((750 : 5) \cdot 7 = 1050\)
Thus, there are a total of 1050 students at Fizic High School.
