Question

in an examination 96% of the candidates passed if 2272 candidates failed how many candidates appeared for the examination and how many passed

Answer 1

If 96percent of candidates passed then,

Percentage of candidates who failed=100-96 =4percent

Let the total number of candidates be x.

Therefore,

4/100×x = 2272

=>x/25 = 2272

=>x = 2272 × 25

=>x = 56800

So, 56800 candidates appeared in the examination.

Number of candidates who passed the examination.

=96/100 × 56800

=24 × 2272

=54528

So, 54528 candidates passed the examination.
