Combined strength of Zoology and Chemistry = 22% + 12% = 34%
2. Hindi and Education
Combined strength of Hindi and Education = 18% + 12% = 30%
3. Zoology and Education
Combined strength of Zoology and Education = 22% + 18% = 40%
4. Hindi and Zoology
Combined strength of Hindi and Zoology = 12% + 22% = 34%
So , combined strength of Zoology and Education is more than combined strength of Physics and Mathematics.
