In an examination, 34% of the students failed in mathematics and 42% failed in English. If 20% of the students failed in both the subjects, then find the percentage of students who passed in both the subjects.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Failed in mathematics, n(A) = 34
Failed in English, n(B) = 42
\begin{aligned}
n(A\cup B) = n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B) \\
= 34+42-20 = 56 \\
\text{Failed in either or both subjects are 56} \\
\text{Percentage passed = }(100-56)\% \\
= 44\%
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Question of this type looks a bit typical, but it is too simple, as below...

It will be 8 * 20/100 = 1.6

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the original price per egg be Rs x
Then increased price will be,
\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{130}{100}x\right) \\
=> \frac{7.80}{x}-\frac{7.80}{\frac{130}{100}x} = 3\\
=> \frac{7.80}{x}-\frac{780}{130x} = 3 \\
=> 390x = 234 \\
=> x = 0.6 \\

\text{Actual price was Rs 0.6} \\
\text{Present price per dozen will be} \\
Rs.\left(12*\frac{130}{100}*0.6 \right) \\
= Rs. 9.36
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Students who play cricket, n(A) = 325
Students who play football, n(B) = 175
Total students who play either or both games,
\begin{aligned}
= n(A\cup B) = 450-50 = 400\\
\text{Required Number}, n(A \cap B) \\
= n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cup B) \\
= 325 + 175 - 400 = 100
\end{aligned}
