In a certain exam of grade ten, 75% students got high score in mathematics, 65%
students got high score in English. If 6% of them did not get high score in both
mathematics and English, then calculate:
i. the percent of students who got high score in both the subjects.
ii. the total number of students who got high score either in mathematics or
in English if 300 students had attended the exam.
Mathematics, grade 10

Respuesta :

(i) The percentage of students who got high scores in both the subjects English and Mathematics is 46%.

(ii) The total number of students who got high scores either in Mathematics or in English if 300 students had attended the exam exists 138.

What is probability?

The probability exists in the analysis of the possibilities of happening of an outcome, which exists acquired by the ratio between favorable cases and possible cases.

The number of students who got high scores in Mathematics was 75%.

The number of students who got high scores in English was 65%.

(i) The percentage of students who got high scores in both the subjects

100% - 6% = 94%

(75% + 65%) - 94%

= 140% - 94%

= 46%

Therefore, the percentage of students who got high scores in both the subjects English and Mathematics is 46%.

(ii) The total number of students who got high scores either in Mathematics or in English if 300 students had attended the exam

= 300 [tex]*[/tex] 46%

= 300 [tex]*[/tex] (46 / 100)

= 300 [tex]*[/tex] 0.46

= 138.

Therefore, the total number of students who got high scores either in Mathematics or in English if 300 students had attended the exam exists 138.
