DO ONLY THE CIRCLE ONES STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION
Answers
Answer:
let the total number of students be = x
percentage of students who passed the examination = 68 percent
so percentage of students who failed the examination = 100 percent - 68 percent = 32 percent
using this we can equate
x × 32 percent = 113984 (as the number of failures is given)
x × 32 = 113984
100
by cross multiplying
x= 113984*100/32
x=356200
Answer:
Total no. of students appeared for the examination = 3,56,200
No. of students passed = 68% = 2,42,216
No. of students failed = 1,13,984
Step-by-step explanation:
17. Pass percentage = 68%
Number of failures = 1,13,984
Let 'x' be the total number of students.
1,13,984 + 68/100 × x = x
x - 68/100 × x = 1,13,984
x - 17x/25 = 1,13,984
25x/25 - 17x/25 = 1,13,984
8x/25 = 1,13,984
8x = 1,13,984 × 25
8x = 2849600
x = 2849600/8
x = 3,56,200
Total no. of students appeared for the examination = 3,56,200
Check ⇒
3,56,200 - 68% = 1,13,984
3,56,200 - 68/100 × 3,56,200 = 1,13,984
3,56,200 - 68 × 3562 = 1,13,984
3,56,200 - 2,42,216 = 1,13,984
1,13,984 = 1,13,984
L.H.S = R.H.S
Hence, the answer is correct.
