• A. \(43.21%\)
• B. \(44.89%\)
• C. \(45.66%\)
• D. \(46.22%\)
• A. \(36.18%\)
• B. \(30.56%\)
• C. \(47.22%\)
• D. \(28.16%\)
• A. \(812\)
• B. \(972\)
• C. \(582\)
• D. \(612\)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
The objective is to find the ratio of the total number of placed students (across all specializations) to the sum of students studying specifically in Operations, Marketing, and Finance, expressed as a percentage.
Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
\[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Total Placed Students}}{\text{Total Students in (Ops + Mkt + Fin)}} \right) \times 100 \]
Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
1. Total number of students placed from all specializations combined = \(1200\) (Given).
2. Total percentage of students pursuing Operations, Marketing, and Finance from the "Studying" pie chart:
\[ \text{Total % Studying} = 35% (\text{Ops}) + 18% (\text{Mkt}) + 20% (\text{Fin}) = 73% \]
3. Calculate the absolute number of students pursuing these three specializations:
\[ \text{Number of students} = 73% \text{ of } 3600 = \frac{73}{100} \times 3600 = 73 \times 36 = 2628 \text{ students.} \]
4. Now, find the required percentage:
\[ \text{Required %} = \left( \frac{1200}{2628} \right) \times 100 \]
\[ \text{Required %} \approx 45.6621...% \]
Rounding to two decimal places, we get \(45.66%\).
Step 4: Final Answer:
The total placed students represent approximately \(45.66%\) of the students in the specified combined specializations.

Answer 2

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
We need to calculate the internal placement rate for the HR specialization by comparing the number of HR students placed to the total number of HR students studying.
Step 2: Key Formula or Approach:
\[ \text{Placement Rate (HR)} = \left( \frac{\text{Students Placed in HR}}{\text{Students Studying HR}} \right) \times 100 \]
Step 3: Detailed Explanation:
1. Find the number of students who got placed from HR (from the Placed chart):
\[ \text{Placed (HR)} = 11% \text{ of } 1200 = 0.11 \times 1200 = 132 \text{ students.} \]
2. Find the total number of students studying HR (from the Studying chart):
\[ \text{Studying (HR)} = 12% \text{ of } 3600 = 0.12 \times 3600 = 432 \text{ students.} \]
3. Calculate the percentage:
\[ \text{Required %} = \left( \frac{132}{432} \right) \times 100 \]
\[ \text{Required %} = \frac{11}{36} \times 100 \approx 30.555...% \]
Rounding this gives \(30.56%\).
Step 4: Final Answer:
The percentage of HR students who got placed is \(30.56%\).

Answer 3

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
This question involves finding totals from two different data sets (one for 'Studying' and one for 'Placed') and calculating the absolute difference between them.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
1. Calculate students studying BA and HR:
Combined percentage = \(15% (\text{BA}) + 12% (\text{HR}) = 27%\).
Number of students = \(27% \text{ of } 3600 = 0.27 \times 3600 = 972 \).
2. Calculate students placed from Marketing and Finance:
Combined percentage = \(22% (\text{Mkt}) + 8% (\text{Fin}) = 30%\).
Number of students = \(30% \text{ of } 1200 = 0.30 \times 1200 = 360 \).
3. Calculate the difference:
Difference = \(972 - 360 = 612 \).
Step 4: Final Answer:
The difference is \(612\).
