Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option C

92%

Solution :

The correct answer is 92%.

We need to find what percentage the number of Medicine students is of the MBA students in City A.

From the table, for City A:

Number of students in Medicine = 1100
Number of students in MBA = 1200

The formula to find what percentage one value is of another is:

Required Percentage = Medicine Students MBA Students × 100

Substituting the values from the table:

Required Percentage = 1100 1200 × 100

Simplifying the fraction:

= 11 12 × 100

= 0.9166... × 100

= 91.67 %

Rounding to the nearest whole number: 91.67% ≈ 92%

Therefore, in City A, the number of students in Medicine is nearly 92% of the number of students in MBA.
