In an interview 3200 candidates appeared out of which 2000 were boys, 40% of boys and 60%of girls passed the interview. What % of the candidates failed in the interview?

Answer»

Total number of boys + girls appeared in the examination = 3200 students

Total number of boys = 2000

Boys passed = 40 %

Boys failed = 100 - 40 = 60 %

Total number of boys failed = (60*2000)/100

= 1200 boys failed out of 2000 boys.

Total number of girls = 1200

Girls passed = 60 %

Girls failed = 100 - 60 = 40 %

Total number of girls failed = (40*1200)/100

= 480 girls failed out of 1200 girls

Total number of boys + girls failed = 1200+480 = 1680 Students

Percentage of failed students = (1680*100)/3200

= 52.5 %
