6 u |
5 u |
Number of girls from Club H at first in percent
= 100% - 25%
= 75%
Number of girls from Club H at first
= 75% x 36
=
75100 x 36
= 27
Number of girls in Club G remains unchanged.
6 u = 36
1 u = 36 ÷ 6 = 6
Number of girls from Club H in the end
= 5 u
= 5 x 6
= 30
Number of girls joined Club H
= 30 - 27
= 3
