Options:

425

426

328

428

Correct Answer:

428

Explanation:

Total number of students in graduate level = 12400

Average number of students of graduate level in P, R and T

= \(\frac{1 }{3}\) ×   \(\frac{ 25 + 14 + 12  }{100}\) × 12400

= \(\frac{1 }{3}\) ×   \(\frac{ 51 }{100}\) × 12400

= \(\frac{1 }{3}\) ×  6324

= 2108

Total number of students in graduate level = 8000

Average number of students of graduate level in P, R and T

= \(\frac{1 }{3}\) ×   \(\frac{ 36 + 17 + 10  }{100}\) × 8000

= \(\frac{1 }{3}\) ×   \(\frac{ 63 }{100}\) × 8000

= \(\frac{1 }{3}\) ×  5040

= 1680

Required difference = 2108 - 1680

= 428
