The number of students weighing less than 55 kg is what percentage less than the number of students weighing 55 kg to 65 kg?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

 The correct answer is Option 1 i.e 5%​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​.

The number of students who weigh less than 55 kg is (20 + 45 +  30) = 95

The number of students weight from 55 kg to 65 kg is (60 + 40) = 100

The required percentage of students = Difference in weight/The number of students weight from 55 kg to 65 kg × 100

⇒ 100−95100×100=5%\frac{100-95}{100}\times 100=5\%
