The pie chart given below shows the number of female students in different subjects. The number of female students in a particular subject is shown as a percentage of a total number of female students in all the subjects together. If the total number of female students is 3600, then what is the difference in the number of female students in subjects S1 and S4? Correct Answer 432
Given:
Total number of female students = 3600
Female students is S1 = 12%
Female students is S4 = 24%
Calculation:
According to the question
The difference between number of female students in S1 and S4 = S4 - S1
⇒ 24% - 12% = 12%
Total female students = 3600
⇒ 100% → 3600
⇒ 1% → 36
⇒ 12% → 12 × 36 = 432
∴ The difference between number of female students in subject S1 and S4 is 432
