Question

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

Answer 1

Step 1: Calculating the percentage of people liking other games

Percentage of people like cricket =60%
Percentage of people like football =30%
Percentage of people who like other games =100-(60+30)
=10 %
Number of people who like cricket $=\left(\frac{60}{100}\right)\times 50=30\text{lakh}$
Number of people who like football $=\left(\frac{30}{100}\right)\times 50=15\text{lakh}$
Number of people who like other games $=\left(\frac{10}{100}\right)\times 50=5\text{lakh}$
