The number of candidates selected from Maharashtra during the period under review is approximately what percentage of the number selected from Delhi during this period?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 94.79%.

Given that

Total selected candidates from Delhi = 94 + 48 + 90 + 70 + 82 = 384

Total selected candidates from Maharastra = 85 + 70 + 84 + 60 + 65 = 364

Hence, the required percentage = (364 × 100)/384 = 94.79%
