Solution and Explanation
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 = \(\bigg(\frac{10}{100}× 50\bigg)\) \(lakh\) = \(5\) \(lakh\)
