7.	In a certain school, 20% of students are below 8 years of age. The number of students above 8 years of age is 2/3 of the number of students of 8 years of age which is 48. What is the total number of students in the school?
	A.	72
	B.	80
	C.	120
	D.	100

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the number of students be x. Then,

Number of students above 8 years of age = (100 - 20)% of x = 80% of x.

80% of x = 48 +	2	of 48
	3

	80	x = 80
	100

x = 100.
