1 point​

Answer 1

Answer:

700 students were present

Step-by-step explanation:

% of candidates passed= 92%

% of candidates failed= 92% - 100%

                                      = 8%

number of candidates failed = 56

∴8% of the whole = 56

let the whole be c

8% of x=56

8/100 × c = 56

8c = 5600

c=700
