The number of females in colleges A and D together is what percentage of the number of males in colleges B and C together (rounded off to two decimal places)?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 91.95%.
Total population of College A = 700
Number of females = 700 × 35/100 = 245
Total population of College D = 700
Number of females = 800 × 55/100 = 440
Total number of females in A and D = 245 + 440 = 685
Now,
Total population of College B = 550
Number of males = 550 × 35/100 = 385
Total population of College C = 600
Number of females = 600 × 60/100 = 360
Total number of males in B and C = 385 + 360 = 745
Now,
Required percentage = 685/745 × 100 = 91.95%
