The following Pie chart represents the percentage-wise distribution of 800 students of class XII in a school in six different sections A, B, C, D, E and F. The table given below shows the number of girls of class XII in six different sections A, B, C, D, E and F. Section A B C D E F No. of girls 102 80 104 98 0 60 The total number of girls in sections B, C and D together is what percent more than the total number of boys in sections A, B and D together?

Section A B C D E F No. of girls 102 80 104 98 0 60 The total number of girls in sections B, C and D together is what percent more than the total number of boys in sections A, B and D together? Correct Answer 76.25
Calculation:
Total number of students = 800
The total number of girls in sections B, C and D together = (80 + 104 + 98) = 282
The total number of students in section A = (800 × 20/100) = 160
Number of boys in section A = (160 – 102) = 58
The total number of students in section B = (800 × 18/100) = 144
Number of boys in section B = (144 – 80) = 64
The total number of students in section D = (800 × 17/100) = 136
Number of boys in section D = (136 – 98) = 38
The total number of boys in sections A, B and D together = (58 + 64 + 38) = 160
The percentage of the total number of girls in sections B, C and D together to the total number of boys in sections A, B and D together =
⇒ (122/160 × 100)
⇒ (12200/160)
⇒ 76.25%
∴ The required percentage is 76.25
