Find the percentage of students who passed from college B for all the years put together to the number of students from college B during all the years (rounded to 2 decimals).
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 94.92%.
Total number of students passed from college B over the years 2010 to 2014
⇒ 530 + 420 + 550 + 620 + 680 = 2800
Total number of students enrolled from college B over the years 2010 to 2014
⇒ 550 + 450 + 600 + 650 + 700 = 2950
Hence, required percent = (2800/2950) × 100 = 94.92%
