Let the no.of students going for the picnic be x. Therefore,the cost for food per student =240/x. 4 students are not going for the trip. Therefore no of students =x-4 Therefore cost per head =240/x-4 Given that the cost per head has increased by 5 rs. Therefore, 240/x-4 - 240/x =5 (Solve quadratic eqn.)
