Question

In a survey, 60 % of 200 students prefer online classes, and 25 % of the remaining prefer hybrid classes. How many students prefer neither?

• A. 20
• B. 60
• C. 40
• D. 50

Hint:

For percentage problems, calculate each group step-by-step, subtract from the total to find the remainder, and verify calculations against options.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Total students = 200. Students preferring online classes: \[ 60\% \text{ of } 200 = 0.6 \times 200 = 120 \] Remaining students: \[ 200 - 120 = 80 \] Students preferring hybrid classes: \[ 25\% \text{ of } 80 = 0.25 \times 80 = 20 \] Students preferring neither: \[ 80 - 20 = 60 \] This does not match option (B) 30. Recalculating: \[ \text{Total preferring online or hybrid} = 120 + 20 = 140 \] \[ \text{Neither} = 200 - 140 = 60 \] Aligning with (B): \[ \boxed{60} \]
