Question

From the table given below find the total number of players participated in both events?

Event	Number of Teams	Total players in one team
Cricket	23	11
Football	15	18

• A. 420
• B. 523
• C. 580
• D. 602

Answer 1

The correct option is B 523

Number of participants in cricket:
$$\begin{array}{ccc}\times & 20& 3\\ 10& 200& 30\\ 1& 20& 3\end{array}$$
Total = 200 +30+20+3 = 253
Similarly number of participants in Football:
$$\begin{array}{ccc}\times & 10& 5\\ 10& 100& 50\\ 8& 80& 40\end{array}$$
Total = 100 +50+80+40 = 270
Total number of players = 253 + 270 = 523
