Question -

If 60% of people in a city like a 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 -

Total number of people = 50,00,000
Number of people who like cricket = 60% of 50,00,000
= 60/100 × 50,00,000
= 30,00,000
Number of people who like football = 30% of 50,00,000
= 30/100 × 50,00,000
= 15,00,000
Number of people who like other games = 50,00,000 – (30,00,000 + 15,00,000)
= 50,00,000 – 45,00,000
= 5,00,000
Percentage of the people who like other games =50000/5000000 × 100 = 10%
Hence, 10% of people like other game.
