Open in App
Solution

Given: Total number of students = 1800

Number of students who opted basketball = 750

Number of students who opted cricket = 800

Therefore, number of students who opted tennis = Total number of students (Students who opted basketball + Students who opted cricket)

=1800(750+800)=18001550=250

Ratio of number of students who opted basketball to that of who opted table tennis

= Number~of~students~who~opted~basketballNumber~of~students~who~opted~table~tennis

= 750250
= 31 [Dividing numerator and denominator by HCF of 750 and 250 i.e. 250]
