Question

How many students from computer and electrical are placed?

• A. 78
• B. 96
• C. 32
• D. 74
• E.

Hint:

To calculate the total number of students placed in multiple categories, sum the individual percentages and then calculate that percentage of the total number of students.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

From the pie chart, the percentage of students placed in Computer is 17%, and in Electrical, it is 15%. The total percentage of students from Computer and Electrical placed is: \[ 17\% + 15\% = 32\%. \] So, the number of students placed in Computer and Electrical is \( 32\% \) of the total number of students: \[ \frac{32}{100} \times 300 = 96 \, \text{students}. \]
