A roll number system uses the format: DEPT(2) + YEAR(2) + MONTH(2) + SEQUENCE(4). If sequences reset monthly and there are 25 departments offering courses in 3 different years, what is the maximum number of students per month?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
DEPT(2) + YEAR(2) + MONTH(2) + SEQUENCE(4)
DEPT(2) ⇒ 25 departments
YEAR(2) ⇒ 3 different years
MONTH(2) ⇒ Calculation for a specific month
SEQUENCE(4) ⇒ 10,000 students from 0000 to 9999
Maximum number of students in a month:
25 × 3 × 10,000 = 750,000
Correct answer: 750,000
