The total number of students in three classes of an Engineering Institute is 885. The strength of the students in the first two
classes are in the ratio of 4 : 9. The ratio of the number of students in the second and the third classes is 6 : 11. How many
students are there in the class that has the maximum number of students?

- Let's assign variables to the number of students in the three classes. Let the number of students in the first class be 4x, in the second class be 9x, and in the third class be 11y.
- According to the problem, the total number of students is 885. Therefore, the equation becomes: 4x+9x+11y=885.
- There is also a ratio between the second and third class, with the ratio given as 6:11. So, we have 9x11y=611.
- Solving 9x11y=611 gives y=9x6.
- Substituting y=9x6 into 4x+9x+11y=885 and solving gives us the total students in each class.
- Solving the simultaneous equations results in the number of students in the classes being x=18, so the first class has 72, the second class has 162, and the third class has 495.
495 students are in the class with the maximum number of students.
