Question

1. In an army selection the % of selected candidate was 60%. If 70 more had applied and 50
less selected then the % of unselected candidate is 60%. How many candidates had
applied for the process ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

190 candidates

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total candidates be X

(x + 70) - ( 3x/5 -50) = (x+70)3/5 [ * 60% =3/5 unselected]

5x+350 -3x +50 = 3x+210

x = 190
