Solution
Let A denotes the number of students and B denotes the number non students.
Then A + B = 357 --------- ( 1 )
and 3.50A + 5.50B = 1455.50 or 7A + 11B = 2911 ---------- ( 2 )
solving ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) we get
A = 254 anf B = 103
Therefore, the number of students is 254 and the number of non students is 103
