Question

If \(60\) % people in city like cricket, \(30\) % like football and the remaining like other games, then what per cent of the people like other games? If the total number of people are \(50\) lakh, find the exact number who like each type of game.

Answer 1

Percentage of people who like other games = \((100 - 60 - 30)\) %
= \((100 - 90)\) % = \(10\) %
Total number of people = \(50\) \(lakh\)
Therefore, number of people who like cricket = \(\bigg(\frac{60}{100} × 50\bigg)\) \(lakh\) = \(30\) \(lakh\)

Number of people who like football = \(\bigg(\frac{30}{100} × 50\bigg)\) \(lakh\) = \(15\) \(lakh\)

Number of people who like other games = \(\bigg(\frac{10}{100}× 50\bigg)\) \(lakh\) = \(5\) \(lakh\)
