A special documentary show was attended by 240 students, who were either from class IV or from class V. Among all the students, the number of girls were 3 times the number of boys. Also, the number of students from class IV was twice the number of students from class V. If 7/16th of the students of class V were boys, then how many girls were there who were not from class V?

A. 25
B. 35
C. 45
D. 105
E. 135

  • 7/16th of the students of class V were boys means:

  • Thus, girls from class IV \(= 180-45=135\)

Hence the right answer is Option E
