   C) 17(1/2)
   D) 20(3/2)
   E) 11(1/3)
   View Answer

     Option B
   Solution:
   In college C , Percentage of students who study science = 100 – 25 – 25 = 50%
   Therefore , 50% == 1040
   Then, Students who study Arts = (1040/50)*25 = 520
   In college D , Percentage of students who study Science  = 100 – 50 – 30 = 20
   Therefore, 20% == 960
   Then, Students who study Arts  = (960/20)*50 = 2400
   Required % = (520/2400)*100 = 65/3 = 21(2/3)
2. What is the total number of students studying Commerce in colleges C and D together?

   View Answer

     Option E
   Solution:
   Total number of students:
   College A ,
   Therefore , 25% == 750
   Then, 100% == (750/25)*100 = 3000
   College B,
   Therefore, 50% == 750
   Then, 100% == (750/50)*100 = 1500
   College C,
   50%== 1040
   Then , 100% == 1040*2 = 2080
   College D,
   20% == 960
   Then, 100% == (960/20)*100 = 4800
   Required difference  = (4800+2080) – (3000+1500)

   View Answer

     Option C
   Solution:
   In college A,
   Percentage of students who study Science = 100 – 20 – 55 = 25%
   Therefore, 25% == 750
   Students who study Arts = (750/25)*20 = 600
   Students who study Commerce  = (750/25)*55 = 1650
   Sum = 600+1650 = 2250
   In college B,
   Percentage of students who study in Science = 100 – 30 – 20 = 50%
   Therefore , 50% == 750
   Students who study Arts = (750/50)*30 = 450
   Students who study Commerce  = (750/50)*20 = 300
   Sum = 450+300 = 750
   Required % = [(2250-750)/750]*100 = 200
