Subject Marks out of 50
40 and above 30 and above 20 and above 10 and above 0 and above
Physics9328092100
Chemistry4216681100

2.
If at least 60% marks in Physics are required for pursuing higher studies in Physics, how many students will be eligible to pursue higher studies in Physics?
27
32
34
41
Answer: Option
Explanation:

We have 60% of 50 = ( 60 x 50 ) = 30.
100

Therefore Required number

      = No. of students scoring 30 and above marks in Physics

      = 32

(0 - 9)-8; (10 - 19)-12; (20 - 29)-48 - (30 - 39)-23; (40 - 50)-9.
The question says at least 60%, here 60% mark is 30.
30 and above marks column mentioned 23 + 9 = 32 students.

So the answer 'option B'.

Friends, 32 is correct answer. It's sum of 40 and 30. See below calculation:

40 and above: 9 - 0 = 9
30 and above: 32 - 9 = 23
20 and above: 80 - 32 = 48
10 and above: 92 - 80 = 12
0 and above: 100 - 92 = 8

Total Student = (9 + 23 + 48 + 12 + 8) = 100 student.

So, 32 is a sum of 40 and 30 (and above) students who got at least 60% marks in Physics.

Look as the accumulative frequency, as a total number of students is 100. So it adds one over the other then the answer is 32.

I think the Answer is 41. Marks above 40 must be considered.

Can anybody explain to me how we got 32, 60 can come under 40 so why we took 30?

Garima majoka said:   9 years ago
32 is right answer because it ask at least 30 n above here 30 is also included in 40 and above 30 not included.

Sainadh said:   9 years ago
