Question

In a class A of 25 students, 20 passed in first class; in another class B of 30 students, 24 passed in first class. In which class was a greater fraction of students getting first class?

Answer 1

As per the question

In class A, 20 passed out of 25, so the fraction of students that passed = $\frac{20}{25}=\frac{4}{5}$

In class B, 24 passed out of 30, so the fraction of students that passes = $\frac{24}{30}=\frac{4}{5}$

Now, $\frac{4}{5}=\frac{4}{5}$

Therefore, $\frac{20}{25}=\frac{24}{30}$

Hence, each class has the same fraction of student getting first class.
