The correct Answer is:
To determine in which class the percentage of students passing in first class is higher, we will calculate the percentage for both classes step by step. ### Step 1: Calculate the percentage of students passing in Class X - **Given**: - Total students in Class X = 30 - Students passing in first class = 24 - **Formula**: \[ \text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{\text{Number of students passing}}{\text{Total number of students}}\right) \times 100 \] - **Calculation**: \[ \text{Percentage in Class X} = \left(\frac{24}{30}\right) \times 100 \] \[ = 0.8 \times 100 = 80\% \] ### Step 2: Calculate the percentage of students passing in Class Y - **Given**: - Total students in Class Y = 35 - Students passing in first class = 28 - **Formula**: \[ \text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{\text{Number of students passing}}{\text{Total number of students}}\right) \times 100 \] - **Calculation**: \[ \text{Percentage in Class Y} = \left(\frac{28}{35}\right) \times 100 \] \[ = 0.8 \times 100 = 80\% \] ### Step 3: Compare the percentages - Percentage in Class X = 80% - Percentage in Class Y = 80% ### Conclusion Since both Class X and Class Y have the same percentage of students passing in first class, the answer is that both classes have equal percentages of students passing in first class. ### Final Answer Both classes have equal percentage of students passing in first class. ---
