Directions: Study the given pie chart and answer the question that follows:
Distribution(degree in) of students studying in schools A, B, C, D, and E.
Total no. of students = 9000
The number of students in school E exceeds the total number of students in schools A and B by x, where x lies between?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 440 and 460
The number of students in school E = (118.8/360) × 9000 = 2970
The total number of students in schools A and B = [(36 + 64.8)/360] × 9000 = 2520
As per question, x = 2970 - 2520 = 430
