Question

In an examination, 92% of students passed and 46 students failed. Find the no. of students appeared​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so the percentage that  passed=92%

the percentage that  failed=100-92

=8%

8%=46

1%=46/8

100%=4600/8

575

Answer 2

Let the total number of students be x

Number of students who failed = 46

Number of students who passed = 92%

of x According to the given condition 92% of x = x – 46

⇒ (92/100) x = x – 6

⇒ 92x = 100x – 4600

⇒ -8x = – 4600

⇒ x = 4600/8 = 575

Number of students who appeared for the examination = 575.
