No. of girls 102 80 104 98 0 60

The total number of girls in sections B, C and D together is what percent more than the total number of boys in sections A, B and D together?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 76.25

The total number of girls in sections B , C, and D = 80 + 104 + 98 = 282.

Number of Boys in section A = 20% of 800 - 102 = 58.

Number of Boys in section B = 18% of 800 - 80 = 144 - 80 = 64

Number of boys in section D = 17% of 800 - 98 = 38.

Number of boys in A, B and D = 58 + 64 + 38 = 160

Rerquired % = (282 - 160)/160 × 100 = 76.25%
