Study the given pie-chart and answer the question that follows.
The pie-chart shows the percentage of 3600 students enrolled in different hobby classes in a school.
The number of students enrolled in Painting classes is approximately what percentage of those enrolled in Singing classes?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 83%.
Calculations:
Let the number of students enrolled be 100x.
Number of students enrolled in Painting classes = 15% of 100x = 15x
Number of students enrolled in singing classes = 18% of 100x = 18x
Required percentage = (15x/18x) × 100 = 83.33% or 83% (approx.)
