The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Calculate Total Enrollment \[ \text{Total} = \text{B.A} + \text{B.Com} + \text{B.Sc} + \text{BBA} = 150 + 200 + 100 + 50 = 500 \text{ students} \] Step 2: Compute 25% of Total Enrollment \[ 25% \text{ of Total} = 0.25 \times 500 = 125 \text{ students} \] Step 3: Compare with Each Course
  • B.A: 150 students $\neq$ 125
  • B.Com: 200 students $\neq$ 125
  • B.Sc: 100 students $\neq$ 125
  • BBA: 50 students $\neq$ 125
Analysis
  • None of the courses have exactly 125 students (25% of total).
  • However, if we consider 25% of the largest course (B.Com): \[ 25% \text{ of B.Com} = 0.25 \times 200 = 50 \text{ students} \] This matches BBA enrollment (50 students).
Conclusion
The question likely expects the course that has 25% of the largest enrollment (B.Com), which is BBA. \[ \boxed{D} \]
