C) 135 D) 165
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 165

Ratio C1:C2 = 3:5 and C2:C3 = 7:11
So C1:C2:C3 = 21 : 35 : 55
Let the strength of three classes are 21x, 35x and 55x respectively, then
Given that 21x + 35x + 55x = 333
=> 111x = 333 or x=3
So strength of the class with highest number of students =55x = 55x3 = 165.

A) 102 & 6 B) 99 & 3
C) 104 & 8 D) 100 & 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 100 & 4

Explanation:

Let the first number be x and the second number be y.

Given

5% of x = (25% of y) + y

=> 5x/100 = 5y/4

=> x = 25y ......(1)

and also given that, x - y = 96

=> x = 96 + y .....(2)

From (1)&(2)

25y = 96 + y

=> 24y = 96

=> y = 4

From (1)

x = 96 + 4 = 100

Hence, the numbers are 100 & 4.
