Answer: Number of students failed =41

Number of students passed = 205

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of students failed.

then, Number of passed students = 5x

Total students = x+5x=6x

Given: Total students = 246

i.e. [tex]6x=246[/tex]

[tex]\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{246}{6}=41[/tex]

So, Number of students failed =41

Number of students passed = 246-41 = 205
