Q17. The total number of students, in 2014-15, across all the three segments is 3276. The ratio of the total students in Primary School and High School combined to that of Upper Primary school is 2:1. The ratio of number of teachers in Primary schools to High School is 3:1. What is the number of teachers in High School?
(d) 21
Number of students in Primary and High School combined = 3276×23=2184
Number of teachers in Primary and High School combined = 2184/26 = 84; (as the Teacher-Pupil ratio is 26 for both);
Given, the ratio of teachers in Primary to High School = 3:1;
Number of teachers in High School = 84×14=21
