One-third of the boys and one-half of the girls of a college participated in a sport. If the number of participating students is 300, out of which 100 are boys. What is the total number of students in the college?

Let number of boys in the school = x

Let number of girls in the school = y

Number of students participated in the sports = 300

Out of which boys = 100

but given number of boys participated in sports = x/3

=> x/3 = 100

=> x = 300

Remaining girls = 300 - 100 = 200

=> y/2 = 200

=> y = 400

Therefore, total number of students in the school = x + y = 300 + 400 = 700
