The total number of students enrolled for VC in institute C in 2013, 2014 and 2017 is what percent of the total number of students enrolled in all the five institutes in 2018 ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Total students for VC in C in 2013 , 2014 & 2017 = 125 + 120 + 140 = 385
Total students enrolled in 2018 = 140 + 142 + 135 + 138 + 145 = 700
Required percentage = \(\frac{385}{700}\) × 100
= 55%
