Which year showed the best result in MBA entrance exams (in terms of percentage of students who cleared) ?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Compare the respective pass percentage for three years : 2000, 2001 and 2002
= (140 x 100)/170 < (150 x 100)/180 and (150 x 100)/180 > (160 x 100)/200
= 82.35% < 83.33% and 83.33% > 80%

@All.
In terms of the percentage of students who cleared
For year 2000,
Number of students who qualified(or passed) CAT/XAT/CET Exams = 140,
Total number of students passed and none = 170,
% = (140/170) * 100.
Hope this helps!

@Cherry:
In the year 2000 total no.of students appeared for the exam was 170. Out of those 140 cleared the exam. Hence the percentage will be 140/170*100.
Similarly calculate the percentages for the remaining two years.

@Anjli.
Because we want to see % of students qualified in the exam hence 170, 180, 200 was considered.

Here it is asked the best result so none should not be considered.
So 140/170 * 100.
So 140/170 * 100.
