Ans: D

Number of students who opted for the given three subjects in the year 2009 is (20000 + 20000 + 5000) = 45000.

Number of girls = 38% of 45000

= $$(45000 × {38}/{100})$$ = 17100.

Out of these, the number of boys who opt for Mathematics cannot be found.

View Answer

Ans: B

In 2007, we have

Total number of students = 455030

Number of those choosing the given three subjects = (15000 + 10000 + 15000) = 40000

Required percentage = $$({40000}/{455030}$$ × 100)%

= 8.79% = 9%.

(D) 52

View Answer

Ans: B

Number of students opting Mathematics in 2005 and 2008 = (15000 + 30000) = 45000.

Number of students opting for the these three subjects in 2005 and 2008

= [(5 + 35 + 15) + (25 + 30 + 30) thousands]

= (55000 + 85000) = 140000.

Required% = $$({45000} / {140000} × 100)$$% = $${225}/{7}$$% = 32%(nearly).
