Question : The following bar chart shows the marks obtained (out of 100) by a student in 6 different subjects in an examination.
The total marks obtained by the student in S2 and S4 taken together is what percentage more than the marks obtained by the student in S5? [Give your answer correct to 2 decimal places.]
Option 1: 73.34%
Option 2: 71.11%
Option 3: 76.47%
Option 4: 79.32%
Correct Answer: 76.47%
Solution :
The total marks obtained by the student in S2 and S4 taken together = 67 + 83 = 150
The total marks obtained by the student in S5 = 85
Difference in marks = 150 – 85 = 65
Required percentage = $\frac{\text{Difference in marks [(S2+S4) – S5]}}{\text{Total marks obtained by the student in S5}}\times100$
= $\frac{65}{85}\times100$
= 76.47%
Hence, the correct answer is 76.47%.
