The following pie chart shows the number of emails (in hundreds) received by 8 different persons, P1 to P8.

P5 and P8 together have received what percentage of the total emails received by these 8 persons taken together?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

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

Total number of emails received by P5 and P8 together = 24 + 44 = 68

Total number of emails received by all = 43 + 57 + 61 + 39 + 24 + 56 + 76 + 44 = 400

Required percent = 68400\dfrac{68}{400} x 100 = 17%

Therefore total number of emails received by P5 and P8 together is 17% of total number of emails received by all 8 persons
