Answer :-

1.) 4; 
Total Student In school A = (2000 * 21) / 100 = 420
Total Boys Student In school A  (420 * 65) / 100 = 273

2.) 2; Reqd Ratio = 270 / 432
= 5 / 8 
= 5 : 8

3.) 2; Difference = 432 - 288
                           = 144

4.) 3; Reqd % = 270 / 2000 * 100 
                       =13.5%

5.) 4; Average = (300 + 270 + 288) / 3
                        = 858 / 3
                        = 286
