Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
First, calculate the number of girls who passed in 2024 for each school by multiplying total students by percentage:
A=550×44%=242,
B=640×40%=256,
C=560×45%=252,
D=800×48%=384,
E=840×55%=462,
F=750×36%=270.
Sum = 1866. Average = 1866÷6 = 311.
Finally, calculate percentage of School A 2023 passed students (500): (311÷500)×100 = 62.2%.
