Options

A. `450`
B. `570`
C. `950`
D. `1250`

Answer

To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these calculations:

### Step 1: Calculate the number of people who have a saving habit.
We know that 60% of the total 2500 people have a saving habit.

\[ \text{Number of people saving} = \frac{60}{100} \times 2500 = 1500 \]

### Step 2: Determine the percentage of people saving in shares.
We are given that 30% save with the bank and 32% save with the post office. To find the percentage of people saving with shares, we need to subtract these percentages from 100%.

\[ \text{Percentage saving with shares} = 100\% - 30\% - 32\% = 38\% \]

### Step 3: Calculate the number of shareholders.
Now, we will find out how many people save with shares, which is 38% of the 1500 people who have a saving habit.

\[ \text{Number of shareholders} = \frac{38}{100} \times 1500 = 570 \]

Thus, the number of shareholders is **570**.
