Question

The pie chart given below shows the number of students who are enrolled in different clubs. The number of students enrolled in the sports club is what percentage of those enrolled in the cultural club?

Answer 1

Let the total number of students enrolled in different clubs be T.

The number of students enrolled in the cultural club is 19% of the total number of students.

∴ Number of students enrolled in the cultural club
$=\frac{19}{100}\times \text{T}$

$=\frac{19\text{T}}{100}$

The number of students enrolled in the sports club is 38% of the total number of students.

∴ Number of students enrolled in the sports club
$=\frac{38}{100}\times \text{T}$

$=\frac{38\text{T}}{100}$

Let's calculate the number of students enrolled in the sports club as a percentage of those enrolled in the cultural club.

$=\frac{\text{Enrollment in the sports club}}{\text{Enrollment in the cultural club}}\times 100$

$=\frac{38\text{T}÷100}{19\text{T}÷100}\times 100$

$=\frac{38}{19}\times 100$

$=2\times 100$

$=200\%$
