Distribution of students at graduate level institutes
If the total number of students at the graduate level is 2,46,000, then how many students of institutes A and B are studying at the graduate level?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 76,260.
Total number of students at the graduate level = 2,46,000
Number of students of institute A = (17/100) × 246000 = 41820
Number of students of institute B = (14/100) × 246000 = 34440
Total students of institutes A and B = 41820 + 34440 = 76260
Therefore, a total of 76,260 students of institutes A and B are studying at the graduate level.
