Q:
In a class 60% of the students pass in English and 45% pass in Hindi. If 25% of them pass in both subjects, what percentage of the students fail in both the subjects?
Answer & Explanation
Answer: A) 20%
Explanation: Percentage of students passed in English = 60%
Percentage of students passed in Hindi = 45%
Percentage of students passed in both subjects = 25%
ATQ,
Percentage of students passed in only English = 60 - 25 = 35%
Percentage of students passed in only Hindi = 45 - 25 = 20%
Therefore, Percentage of students failed = 100 - (35 + 25 + 20)
= 100 - 80 = 20%.
