The bar graph given below represents the number of students(in thousands), who opted for three different specialisations during four given years in a University.
The total number of students in the university in 2021 was 1,60,000; find the percentage of the students who opted for the given three subjects.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e 43.75%.
History = 35000
Mathematics = 15000
Science = 20000
Total = 35000 + 15000 + 20000 = 70000
The total number of students in the university in 2021 = 1,60,000
The percentage of students who opted for the given three subjects in 2021 = 70000/160000 × 100 = 43.75%
