Let the students who take His be x, so the students who take Geo:

( 1 + 50% ) x

= 1.5x

The total number of students = 1.5 x + x = 2.5 x

So the % of students who take His :

(x / 2.5x )( 100% )

= 40%

Let X be the percentage of students studying History

X + 1.5X = 1
2.5X = 1
X = 1/2.5
X = 0.4
X = 40%

So the percentage of students studying History is 40 %
