The given pie charts represent the distribution of candidates who enrolled for a bank clerical examination and the candidates (out of those enrolled) who passed the examination, from five different institutes P,Q. R. S and T. Study the pie charts and answer the question that follows.
(i) Total number of candidates who enrolled for the examination from five institutes = 5500
Fig. (i)
(ii) Total number of candidates who passed the examination from five institutes = 3300
Fig. (ii)
Which institute(s) has/have the highest percentage of candidates passed to the candidates enrolled?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
In P,
Candidates enrolled in P = \(\frac{20 }{100}\) × 5500
= 1100
Candidates passed in P = \(\frac{18 }{100}\) × 3300
= 594
Required percentage = \(\frac{594}{1100}\) × 100 = 54%
In Q,
Candidates enrolled in Q = \(\frac{30 }{100}\) × 5500
= 1815
Candidates passed in Q = \(\frac{24 }{100}\) × 3300
= 792
Required percentage = \(\frac{792}{1815}\) × 100 = 43.63%
In R,
Candidates enrolled in R = \(\frac{12 }{100}\) × 5500
= 660
Candidates passed in R = \(\frac{18 }{100}\) × 3300
= 594
Required percentage = \(\frac{594}{660}\) × 100 = 90%
In S,
Candidates enrolled in S = \(\frac{18 }{100}\) × 5500
= 990
Candidates passed in S = \(\frac{24 }{100}\) × 3300
= 792
Required percentage = \(\frac{792}{990}\) × 100 = 80%
In T,
Candidates enrolled in T = \(\frac{20 }{100}\) × 5500
= 1100
Candidates passed in T = \(\frac{16 }{100}\) × 3300
= 528
Required percentage = \(\frac{528}{1100}\) × 100 = 48%
So , Institute R has the highest percentage of candidates passed to the candidates enrolled.
Ans :- R
