Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
The table shows the marks obtained by 100 students out of 50 in Mathematics and Physics in an examination.
Marks in Physics for eligibility to pursue higher studies: 60%.
Formula Used:
Marks required for 60% in Physics = Total marks × Percentage required
Calculation:
Marks required for 60% in Physics = 50 × 60%
⇒ Marks required for 60% in Physics = 50 × 0.6
⇒ Marks required for 60% in Physics = 30
From the table, the number of students scoring 30 or above in Physics = 21
The number of students eligible to pursue higher studies in Physics is 21.
