Correct Answer :

Option A

588

Solution :

Correct Answer: 588


From the given pie charts, we can observe the following data:

• Total number of Boys in all five schools = 2800

• Percentage distribution of boys in school C = 30%

• Percentage distribution of boys in school D = 16%

• Percentage distribution of boys in school E = 17%


To find the average number of boys in schools C, D, and E, we can first calculate the total percentage of boys in these three schools combined:

Total Percentage = 30 % + 16 % + 17 % = 63 %


Now, calculate the total number of boys in schools C, D, and E combined:

Total Boys (C + D + E) = 63 % of 2800

Total Boys (C + D + E) = 63 100 × 2800 = 63 × 28 = 1764


Next, find the average number of boys in these 3 schools by dividing the total number of boys in C, D, and E by 3:

Average = 1764 3 = 588


Thus, the average number of boys in schools C, D, and E is 588.
