(correct to one decimal point) Correct Answer 39.3

Total number of students enrolled for VC in institutes A, B and D in 2015 = 130 + 138 + 122

⇒ 390

Total number of students enrolled in institutes C and E in 2018 = 135 + 145 = 280

Difference = 390 - 280 = 110

Percentage = (110/280) × 100

⇒ 39.28 ≈ 39.3

∴ Required answer is 39.3
