Answer» Total no. of students = 50,000 Number of students like Pulses and Chapatti = 60% of 50,000 = 50,000 x 60/100 = 30,000 Number of students like Vegetable and Chapatti = 25% of 50,000 = 50,000 x 25/100 = 12,500 Remaining students = 50,000 – (30,000 + 12,500) = 50,000 – 42,500 = 7,500 ∴ No. of students like Khichdi = 7,500 ∴ Percentage of students like Khichdi = 7500/50000 x 100 = 15% Hence, 15% students like Khichdi.

Answer»

Total no. of students = 50,000

Number of students like Pulses and Chapatti = 60% of 50,000

= 50,000 x 60/100 = 30,000

Number of students like Vegetable and Chapatti = 25% of 50,000

= 50,000 x 25/100

= 12,500

Remaining students

= 50,000 – (30,000 + 12,500)

= 50,000 – 42,500

= 7,500

∴ No. of students like Khichdi = 7,500

∴ Percentage of students like Khichdi

= 7500/50000 x 100

= 15%

Hence, 15% students like Khichdi.
