Correct Answer: Option B

Explanation

==
Number of students in JSS = 60% of 600
= 0.60 x 600 = 360
Since the remaining students are in SSS, we can calculate the number of students in SSS: Number of students in SSS = Total school population - Number of students in JSS Number of students in SSS = 600 - 360
= 240
