Correct Answer: 40%
Solution :
Failed in Hindi = 35%
Failed in English = 45%
Failed in both = 20%
$\therefore$ Percentage of students who failed in a minimum of one subject = (35 + 45) – 20 = 60%
Percentage of students who passed in both subjects = (100 – 60) = 40%
Hence, the correct answer is 40%.
