Question: The ratio of the number of students in two classes is 2:3. If there are 60 students in total, how many students are in the larger class?
Options:
Correct Answer: 36
Solution:
Let students in class 1 = 2x and class 2 = 3x. Then, 2x + 3x = 60, 5x = 60, x = 12. Larger class = 3x = 3*12 = 36.
