Study the following graph and answer the question that follows.
Number of students that appeared and qualified, from various colleges, at a scholarship examination.
The number of students that appeared for the scholarship exam from College X is what percentage of the total number of students that appeared for the exam from all the colleges together?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Total number of students that appeared for exam from all colleges
= 2800 + 1800 + 3000 + 2000 + 2400
= 12000
Number of students appeared for scholarship exam from College X
= 3000
Percentage of students appeared for exam from college X to number of students appeared from all colleges
= \(\frac{3000 }{12000}\) × 100
= 25%
