Correct Answer: 6,000


Solution : Given: In an examination, 92% of the students passed and 480 students failed.
Let the number of the students who appeared in the examination = 100%.
The number of the students failed = 100 – 92 = 8%.
8% = 480
The number of students who appeared in the examination,
100% = $\frac{480}{8}\times 100=6000$
Hence, the correct answer is 6,000.
