Study the following pie-chart and answer the following questions. Total number of students in a college in various fields = 5000 Distribution of the number of students int various fields: The ratio of the number of girls in economics to the number of students in economics is? |
13 : 25 14 : 25 12 : 25 11 : 25 |
14 : 25 |
In Economics : No. of students = 12% of 5000 No. of girls = 56% of (12% of 5000) Therefore, No. of girls : Total students = 56% of (12% of 5000) : (12% of 5000) = 56% : 1 = 56 : 100 = 14 : 25
Alternate: Total students of Economics = 12% 12% of 5000 = 600 No. of girls = 56% of 600 = 336 Required ratio → 336 : 600 14 : 25 |
