Question

In an examination 96% of the candidates passed and 50 failed. How many candidates appeared ​

Answer 1

Answer:

1250

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of students be x

then ,

(96/100)* x + 50= x

x -0.96x = 50

0.04x = 50

x = (50/0.04)

x = 1250

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

50 students = 4% = 4/100

MULTIPLYING BOTH SIDES BY 25

1250 students = 100%

1200 Students = 96%

hence 1250 students appeared for the exam
