None of these
Let x = number of students in each class.
Then total number of students in school. is = 10x
If 3 classes are half full then we have 3x/2 students absent.
If 5 classes are 3/4 full that means that (1/4)*5x students are absent.
If 2 classes are 1/6 empty that means that (1/6)*2x students are absent.
Now we are told that
(3x/2) + (1/4)*5x + (1/6)*2x = 74
or,(3x/2) + (5x/4) + (x/3) = 74
or,18x + 15x + 4x = 888
or,7x = 280
x = 24
number of students in each class is 24
number of student in this school = 10x
= 10*24 = 240
ans: 240
