The total number of students enrolled for VC in institutes A, B and D in 2015 is what percent more than the total number of students enrolled in institutes C and E in 2018? (correct to one decimal point)

Options:

28.2

36.8

35.7

39.3

Correct Answer:

39.3

Explanation:

Number of students enrolled for VC in A , B & D in 2015 = 130 + 138 + 122 = 390

Number of students enrolled in institutes C and E in 2018 = 135 + 145 = 280

Required percentage =  \(\frac{390 - 280}{280}\) × 100

=  \(\frac{110}{280}\) × 100

= 39.3%
