For this part, we will also have to calculate the number of students who failed in each school.Β
adding that to our previous data table we get:

Calculating the students who passed with distinction as a percentage of students who failed for the given options we see,Β
Option A:Β $$\frac{470}{280}\times\ 100\approx\ 170\%$$
Option B:Β $$\frac{420}{150}\times\ 100\approx\ 280\%$$
Option C:Β $$\frac{490}{210}\times\ 100\approx\ 230\%$$
Option D:Β $$\frac{550}{500}\times\ 100\approx\ 110\%$$
We can see that Option D or School F has the least percentage in this category.Β
Therefore, Option D is the correct answer.Β
