Given:

There are 36 students in a class. \( \frac{7}{12} \) of the students like football and the remaining students like cricket.

To find: We have to find the number of students who like cricket.

Solution: 

Number of students like football = $\frac{7}{12}$ $\times $ 36 = 7 $\times $ 3 = 21

Now, remaining students like cricket:

Number of students like cricket = Total number of students - Number of students like football

Number of students like cricket = 36 $-$ 21

Number of students like cricket = 15
