In all the cities altogether, what is the difference between the students of science and those of MBA?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 4240.
Given that
The total science students in all 5 cities = 11200
The total MBA students in all 5 cities = 6960
The difference between the total number of science students and MBA students = 11200 - 6960 = 4240.
