What is the total number of non-trained male teachers in College A and non-trained female teachers in College B?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 222.
Given that
Percentage of trained male teachers in A = 44%
Hence, the percentage of non-trained male teachers in A = 56%
Total number of non-trained male teachers in College A = = 126
Percentage of trained female teachers in B = 25%
Hence, the percentage of non-trained female teachers in B = 75%
Total number of non-trained female teachers in college B = = 96
Hence, the total number of non-trained male teachers in College A and non-trained female teachers in College B = 126 + 96 = 222.
