1. Each boy contributed money equal to the number of girls and each girl contributed money equal to the number of boys in a class of 60 students. If the total contribution thus collected is Tk. 1,600, how many boys are there in the class?

  • A. 30
  • B. 30
  • C. 30
  • D. 30

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let's say,

Number of boys=x

So, number of girls=60-x

As per the question,

x×(60-x)+(60-x)×x=1600

or, x=20

So there are 20 boys
