Option 3: E
Option 4: C
Correct Answer: E
Solution :
According to the question
Percentage of girls in a school= $\frac{\text{Number of girls}}{\text{Total number of students}}$ × 100
In school A, percentage of girls = $\frac{500}{1100}$ × 100 = 45.4%
In school B, percentage of girls = $\frac{550}{1000}$ × 100 = 55%
In school C, percentage of girls = $\frac{650}{1400}$ × 100 = 46.4%
In school D, percentage of girls = $\frac{600}{1300}$ × 100 = 46.1%
In school E, percentage of girls = $\frac{650}{1450}$ × 100 = 44.8%
So, school E has a minimum percentage of girls.
Hence, the correct answer is E.
