The number of students enrolled in different streams at Senior Secondary level in five schools has been shown in the bar graph. What percentage of the total number of students in all the streams taken together in all the five schools to the number of students enrolled in the science stream in school A?
The number of students enrolled in different streams at Senior Secondary level in five schools has been shown in the bar graph. What percentage of the total number of students in all the streams taken together in all the five schools to the number of students enrolled in the science stream in school A? Correct Answer 8
Calculation:
The number of students enrolled in the science stream in school A = 60
Total number of students in school A = (60 + 70 + 50) = 180
Total number of students in school B = (78 + 82 + 40) = 200
Total number of students in school C = (45 + 40 + 35) = 120
Total number of students in school D = (40 + 45 + 40) = 125
Total number of students in school E = (40 + 35 + 50) = 125
Now,
The total number of students in all the streams taken together in all the five schools = (180 + 200 + 120 + 125 + 125) = 750
The percentage of the total number of students in all the streams taken together in all the five schools is the number of students enrolled in the science stream in school A = (60/750 × 100)
⇒ 8%
∴ The required percentage is 8%
