Answer 2

Given:

• 96% candidates passed the exam.
• 75 candidates failed in exam.

To Find:

• Total number of candidates appeared in exam?

Understand what to do:

We have given that 96% candidates are passed in a exam where 75 candidates failed in exam. We can also conclude that if 96% candidates are passed then remaining will fail in exam which will be 4% that means 4% candidates are failed in exam which are equal to 75.

Let suppose that total number of candidates appeared in exam hall are x. So according to given conditions, we can say that number of passed candidates are 96% of x and number of failed candidates are 4% of x

Solution:-

Let suppose that total candidates appeared in exam are x

Now,

• Passed candidates = 96% of x
• Failed candidates = 4% of x

According to given condition:

4% of x = 75

→ 4x/100 = 75

→ x = 75×100/4

→ x = 7500/4

→ x = 1875

Conclusion:

• Total candidates appeared in examination is 1875
