Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Correct Answer is option 1 i.e. 27%

Application

Fair calculation

Total number of students = 150 + 100 + 200 + 100 + 300 + 50 + 250 + 100 + 300 + 100 = 1650

Total number of failed students = 100 + 100 + 50 + 100 + 100 = 450

∴ Required percentage = [450/1650] × 100 = 27.27% ≈ 27%

 

 

 

[450/1650] × 100

= 900/33 = 27.27
