The number of students studying in class VII from school U forms approximately what percentage of the total number of students from all the classes together from that school?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 17%.

According to the given table,

Number of students in class VII in school U = 162

Total number of studentas in school U = 150 + 160 + 162 + 160 + 161 + 140 = 933

Required percentage = 162933×100{162 \over 933} \times 100 = 17.36 ≈ 17%

Hence the required answer is 17%.
