The percentage of failed students is 12%
We have,
Total number of students = 175
Number of students passed = 154
We need to calculate the percentage of the number of failed students.
How do we calculate the percentage?
The formula used to calculate the percentage is:
[tex]\frac{ required~value}{total~value} \times 100[/tex]
Here,
Total value:
= Total number of students
= 175
Required value:
= Number of students failed
= Total number of students - Number of students passed
= 175 - 154
= 21
Percentage of failed students:
= [tex]\frac{21}{175} \times 100\\[/tex]
= ( 21 x 100 ) / 175
= 2100 / 175
= 12 %
The percentage of failed students is 12%.
