No. of students speaking Hindi = 320

No. of students speaking both Hindi and English = 40

To Find:

Percentage of students that can speak English.

Solution:

• No. of students that can speak only English = 800 - (320+40)

⇒800 - 360

⇒440 students can only speak English.

• Total no. of students that can speak English = 440 + 40

⇒480 students.

• Percentage of students that can speak English=

⇒(Total no. of students that can speak English÷ Total no. of students.)×100

⇒ (480÷800)×100

⇒60%

Hence, the percentage of students that can speak English is 60%.
