`{:("Passed in all the subjects","167"),("Failed in all the subjects",60),("Failed in social Sciences",175),("Failed in Mathematics",199),("Failed in science",191),("Passed in Social Science ",62),("Passed in Mathematics only",48),("Passed in Science only ",52):}`
How many failed in Social Sciences only?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Candidates failed in Social Sciences = 175
Candidates failed in all the Subjects = 60
Candidates passed in Science only = 52
Candidates passed in Maths only = 48
Therefore, candidates failed in Social Science only
`= 175 - (60 + 52 + 48)`
`= 175 - 160 = 15 `
