Of the 75 boys who appeared for an examination in a school, only 80% managed to pass. If total number of students in the school who appeared for the exam were 145 and number of girls who passed were 2 less than that of boys, what percentage (approx.) of girls passed the exam ?1). 80.14%2). 81.75%3). 82.85%4). 85%

Answer»

Number of boys APPEARING for the exam = 75

Number of boys passing the exam = (80/100) × 75 = 60

Total Number of STUDENTS in the school appearing for the exam = 145

Number of girls appearing for the exam = 145 – 75 = 70

Number of girls passing the exam = 60 – 2 = 58

Percentage of girls who PASSED the exam = (58/70) × 100 = 82.85%
