Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Given:
Total number of students in class = 200
Percentage of students only speak English = 40%
Percentage of students only speak Hindi = 45%
Calculation:
According to the question
Percentage of students who can speak English = [40 + (100 - 40 - 45)]%
⇒ (40 + 15)% = 55%
So, The number of students = 55% of 200
⇒ (55 × 200)/100
⇒ 55 × 2 = 110
∴ The total number of students who can speak English is 110
