The pie chart shows the angular representation of placement data in five different courses. If the total number of candidates qualified is 1.44,000, then the number of candidates in Q is what per cent of candidates in S? (Rounded off to 2 decimal places)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 68.18%.
Percentage of candidates in Q = (75/360) × 100 ≈ 20.83%
Percentage of candidates in S = (110/360) × 100 ≈ 30.55%
Required percentage = (20.83/30.55) × 100 = 68.183...% ≈ 68.18%
Therefore, the number of candidates in Q is 68.18% of the number of candidates in S.
