Let's begin by determining the % failed for each subject alone (total % failed in each subject -
% failed in both subjects):
% failed Hindi alone = 35% - 20% = 15%
% failed English alone = 45% - 20% = 25%
Next, let's determine the total % failed for both subjects (sum of % failed for each subject alone):
total % failed = 15% + 25% = 40%
Next, let's determine the total % passed for both subjects (100% - total % failed):
total % passed = 100% - 40 % = 60%
Next, let's determine the total % passed in each subject (100% - total % failed in each subject):
total % passed Hindi = 100% - 35% = 65%
total % passed English = 100% - 45% = 55%
Now we can write an equation to solve for % passed in both subjects (sum of total % passed in each subject - % passed in both subjects (x) = total % passed for both subjects):
(65% - x) + (55% - x) = 60%
120% - 2x = 60%
2x = 120% - 60%
2x = 60%
x = 60%/2
x = 30% (passed in both subjects)

Answer:
percentage of students who passed in both subjects=40%
Step-by-step explanation:
percentage of students who failed in hindi=35%
percentage of students who failed in english=45%
percentage of students who failed in both=20%
so,to find the percentage of students who failed only in hindi we subtract 20 from 35 (because 20% of the students failed both) which gives us 15%
similarly subtracting 20 from 45 we get 25% so,
the percentage of students who failed only in hindi=15%
the percentage of students who failed only in english=25%
when we add 15%+20%+25%=60%
so 60% is the total percentage of the students who failed the exams
subtracting 60%form 100% we get 40% which is the percentage of students who passed in both subjects.
hope it helps!
