Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Solution:

  1. Total males = 120. Rural males = 25% of 120 = 30.

  2. Total females = 100. Rural females = 20% of 100 = 20.

  3. Total rural students = 30 + 20 = 50.

  4. Passed among rural males = 20% of 30 = 6; passed among rural females = 25% of 20 = 5.

  5. Total rural students who passed = 6 + 5 = 11.

  6. Required percentage = (11 / 50) × 100 = 22%
