1. Answer the following questions based on the information given below:
The proportion of male students and the proportion of vegetarian students in a school are given below. The school has a total of 800 students, 80% of whom are in the secondary section and rest equally divided between class 1 and 12.
What is the percentage of vegetarian students in class 12?
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
The total number of male students 0.475 * 800 = 380
The vegetarian students in the school 0.53 * 800 = 424.
The number of students in secondary section is 640 of which 0.55 * 440 = 352 are vegetarian.
Similarly, we can calculate,
Percentage of male students in secondary section = 288/640 * 100 ≈ 45%.
