Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 2015

Option 1:

Number of students in institute A = 250

Number of students in institute B = 325

⇒ (75/250) × 100 = 33.33%

Option 2:

Number of students in institute A = 300

Number of students in institute B = 375

⇒ (75/300) × 100 = 25%

Option 3:

Number of students in institute A = 280

Number of students in institute B = 360

⇒ (80/280) × 100 = 28.56%

Option 3 is the correct answer.
