A Welfare Association has a sports club where 30% of the members play cricket, 28% play volleyball, 22% play badminton and the rest play indoor games. If 30 member play indoor games.

1. How many members are there in the sports club?
2. How many play cricket, volleyball and badminton?

Answer 1

Given data

Members who play Cricket = 30% …..(1)

Members who play Volleyball = 28% …..(2)

Members who play Badminton = 22% ……(3)

Members who play outdoor games = (1) + (2) + (3) = 30

Members who play indoor games = 100 – 80 = 20%

Also given 30 members play indoor games
Let total no of members be ‘x’

∴ 30/x = 20

∴ x = (30×100)/20 = 15

1. Total number of members is 150

2. Members who play Cricket = 30% of total = 30/100 x 150
