Answer the following question based on the table:

What is the number of students whose overall percentage obtained is 80% and above?

Options:

4

5

2

3

Correct Answer:

4

Explanation:

Overall percentage of A = \(\frac{92 + 90 + 90 + 80 }{400}\) × 100

= 88%

Overall percentage of B = \(\frac{90 + 80 + 85 + 85 }{400}\) × 100 

= 85%

Overall percentage of C = \(\frac{80 + 80 + 65 + 70 }{400}\) × 100

= 73.75%

Overall percentage of D = \(\frac{85 + 80 + 82 + 75 }{400}\) × 100

= 80.5%

Overall percentage of E = \(\frac{80 + 75 + 75 + 85 }{400}\) × 100

= 78.75%

Overall percentage of F = \(\frac{90 + 90 + 90 + 85 }{400}\) × 100

= 88.75%

Students with more than 80% are A , B , D & F

Number of students with overall percentage more than 80% = 4
