Answer 1

Answer:

option ( c ) is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

it is given that,

72% of candidates passed

therefore,

percent of candidates failed

= 100 - 72 = 28%

it is given that,

84 candidate are failed

therefore,

28% = 84

1% = 84/28 = 3

100 % = 3 x 100 = 300

therefore,

300 candidates appeared for the exam

Hence, option ( c ) is correct .
