Total: 80

If the population of a school is 600 and 60% are In JSS, how many students are in SSS?

244
240
224
204

Solution:

Concept:

The school population is shared between JSS and SSS, so SSS students are the remainder after subtracting JSS students.

Explanation:

Total school population is

600

.

Students in JSS

= 60\%

of

600

.

This equals

0.60 \times 600 = 360

.

Students in SSS

= \text{Total population} - \text{JSS students}

.

Therefore, SSS students

= 600 - 360 = 240

.
