Question Detail
In an examination, 34% of the students failed in mathematics and 42% failed in English. If 20% of the students failed in both the subjects, then find the percentage of students who passed in both the subjects.
- 40%
- 42%
- 44%
- 46%
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Failed in mathematics, n(A) = 34
Failed in English, n(B) = 42
\begin{aligned}
n(A\cup B) = n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B) \\
= 34+42-20 = 56 \\
\text{Failed in either or both subjects are 56} \\
\text{Percentage passed = }(100-56)\% \\
= 44\%
\end{aligned}
1. Out of 450 students of a school, 325 play football, 175 play cricket and 50 neither play football nor cricket. How many students play both football and cricket ?
- 75
- 100
- 125
- 150
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Students who play cricket, n(A) = 325
Students who play football, n(B) = 175
Total students who play either or both games,
\begin{aligned}
= n(A\cup B) = 450-50 = 400\\
\text{Required Number}, n(A \cap B) \\
= n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cup B) \\
= 325 + 175 - 400 = 100
\end{aligned}
2. How many litres of pure acid are there in 8 litres of a 20% solution
- 1.5
- 1.6
- 1.7
- 1.8

It will be 8 * 20/100 = 1.6
3. 10% of inhabitants of a village having died of cholera, a panic set in, during which 25% of the remaining inhabitants let the village. The population is then reduced to 4050. Find the original inhabitants
- 5500
- 6000
- 6500
- 7000
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let the total number is x,
then,
(100-25)% of (100 - 10)% x = 4050
=> 75% of 90% of x = 4050
=> 75/100 * 90/100 * x = 4050
=> x = (4050*50)/27 = 6000
4. If x% of y is 100 and y% of z is 200, then find the relation between x and z.
- z = x
- 2z = x
- z = 2x
- None of above
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
It is , y% of z = 2(x% of y)
=> yz/100 = 2xy/100
=> z = 2x
5. In an examination, 34% of the students failed in mathematics and 42% failed in English. If 20% of the students failed in both the subjects, then find the percentage of students who passed in both the subjects.

- 44%
- 46%
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Failed in mathematics, n(A) = 34
Failed in English, n(B) = 42
\begin{aligned}
n(A\cup B) = n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B) \\
= 34+42-20 = 56 \\
\text{Failed in either or both subjects are 56} \\
\text{Percentage passed = }(100-56)\% \\
= 44\%
\end{aligned}
