Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a certain year, the Rajya Sabha had 245 members. If 50% of them were elected and the rest were nominated, how many members were elected?
  • Step 1: Identify the total number of members in the Rajya Sabha, which is 245.
  • Step 2: Understand that 50% means half of the total members.
  • Step 3: Calculate 50% of 245 by multiplying 245 by 0.5.
  • Step 4: Perform the multiplication: 0.5 * 245 = 122.5.
  • Step 5: Since we cannot have a fraction of a member, round 122.5 down to the nearest whole number, which is 122.
  • Step 6: Conclude that the number of elected members is 122.
