What is the ratio of boys and girls in the college?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e 1 : 1
Number of boys in CE = 2600 × 0.2 × 3/5 = 312
Number of boys in CS = 2600 × 0.18 × 4/9 = 208
Number of boys in IT = 2600 × 0.21 × 3/7 = 234
Number of boys in ME = 2600 × 0.22 × 6/11 = 312
Number of boys in EC = 2600 × 0.19 × 9/19 = 234
Total boys = 312 + 208 + 234 + 312 + 234 = 1300
Hence, total girls = 2600 – 1300 = 1300
Ratio = 1300 : 1300 = 1 : 1
