The number of candidates who did not qualify in bank K was approximately what percent(correct to nearest integer) of the candidates who did not qualify in bank I?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Number of candidates did not qualify in K = \(\frac{80 }{100}\) × 980
= 784
Number of candidates did not qualify in I = \(\frac{74 }{100}\) × 2200
= 1628
Required percentage = \(\frac{784 }{1628}\) × 100
= 48.15%
= 48% ( nearest integer )
