Answer

D

Explanation

No. of people who prefer piano = 9% of 60000=5400
According to question, `16(2)/(3)%` of no. of the people
who prefer piano would go with flute.
Therefore, `(50)/(3)% ` of 5400=900
Hence, the required percentage
`=(900+11%" of "60000)/(60000)xx100`
`=(900+6600)/(60000)xx100=12.5%`
