Answer: Option A
Explanation:
In this question, first we will find 8% of 8550 to get the total number of students enrolled in T, then we will calculate the 9% of 8550 to get students passes in T.
then we will calculate their percentage,
in short cut way we can do it as,
\begin{aligned}
\text{Percentage =}\left(\frac{\text{9% of 5700}}{\text{8% of 8550}}*100 \right) \% \\
= \left( \frac{9*5700}{8*8550}*100 \right) \% \\
= 75 \%
\end{aligned}
