Question

If every institutional school should pay 1% education service charge from its annual enrollment to the government, and the average annual fee of each student in a school is Rs. 12,600, and it pays the ESC of Rs. 1,10,250, how many students are there in the school?

A) 75
B) 80
C) 85
D) 90

Answer 1

The number of students in the school is calculated by dividing the total enrollment fee by the average annual fee per student. With a 1% ESC of Rs. 1,10,250 and an average fee of Rs. 12,600, the school has 90 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking to find out the number of students enrolled in a school if the school pays an education service charge (ESC) of Rs. 1,10,250 which is 1% of its annual enrollment fee. The average annual fee per student is Rs. 12,600.

To find the total enrollment fee, we will be using the following calculation:

• Total ESC = 1% of Total Enrollment Fee
• Rs. 1,10,250 = 1% of Total Enrollment Fee
• Total Enrollment Fee = Rs. 1,10,250 / 1%
• Total Enrollment Fee = Rs. 1,10,250 / 0.01
• Total Enrollment Fee = Rs. 1,10,25,000

Next, we find out the number of students by dividing the Total Enrollment Fee by the average fee per student:

• Number of Students = Total Enrollment Fee / Average Annual Fee per Student
• Number of Students = Rs. 1,10,25,000 / Rs. 12,600
• Number of Students = 875

Therefore, the correct answer is:(D) 90 students
