Question 113

By what percent is the sum total of Engg. graduates in B, C and F taken together greater than the sum total of Arts graduates in D and E taken together?

Solution

Total number of Engineering graduates in B, C, F taken together = 28 + 62 + 26 = 116 x 1000

Total number of Arts graduates in D and E taken together = 45 + 24 = 69 x 1000

Required percentage = $$\frac{116 - 69}{69} \times 100 = \frac{47}{69} \times 100 = 68$$%

Hence, option B is the correct answer.
