Option 3 : 51%
Calculation:
The number of candidates enrolled for institutes P and T together = (20 + 20)% = 40%
Total number of candidates enrolled in five different institutes = 5500
The percentage of the number of candidates enrolled for institutes P and T together = (40% of 5500)
⇒ (40/100 × 5500)
⇒ 2200
Now,
The number of candidates passed from institutes P and T together = (18 + 16)% = 34%
Total number of candidates who passed the examination from five institutes = 3300
The percentage of the number of candidates passed from institutes P and T together = (34% of 3300)
⇒ (34/100 × 3300)
⇒ 1122
Now,
The percentage of the candidates who passed to the number of candidates enrolled for institutes P and T together = (1122/2200 × 100)%
⇒ (1122/22)%
⇒ 51%
∴ The required percentage is 51%
