Students of the class are made to stand in rows if one student is extra in a row , there would be 2 rows left .
if one student is less in a row there would be 3 rows more. Find the number of students in the class?

Answer. 60 students, 5 students in row, 12 rows.

But the formulation is terrible.

It should be like this: 

   Students of the class are standing in rows. 
   Had each row has one more student, it would be in 2 rows less. 
   Had each row has one student less, it would be in 3 rows more. 
   Find the number of students in the class.
