Question

If $60$ % people in city like cricket, $30$ % like football and the remaining like other games, then what per cent of the people like other games? If the total number of people are $50$ lakh, find the exact number who like each type of game.

Answer 1

Percentage of people who like other games = $(100 - 60 - 30)$ %
= $(100 - 90)$ % = $10$ %
Total number of people = $50$ $lakh$
Therefore, number of people who like cricket = $\bigg(\frac{60}{100} × 50\bigg)$ $lakh$ = $30$ $lakh$

Number of people who like football = $\bigg(\frac{30}{100} × 50\bigg)$ $lakh$ = $15$ $lakh$

Number of people who like other games = $\bigg(\frac{10}{100}× 50\bigg)$ $lakh$ = $5$ $lakh$
