Total number of boys in sections A, B and D = 36 + 26 + 28

⇒ 90

Total number of girls in sections A, B and D = 24 + 28 + 23

⇒ 75

Required percentage = (15/75) × 100

⇒ 20%

∴The total number of boys in sections A, B and D together is 20% more than the total number of girls in sections A, B and D together.
