A Company finds that 62% of applicants pass its hiring test. if 10212 applicants took the test last year and 23% more applicants took the test this year?

• 
  No of applicants took the test = 10212 + 23% of 10212
  =12560.76
  =12560
  
  62% pass every year
  ===>38% fail every year
  
  No. of applicants failed this year = 38/100*12560
  = 4773

• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
• total no. of student=10212
  23% is more means 10212+23%=10212*23/100=2349(round off value bz of no. of student)
  therefore total no. of student = 10212+2349 = 12561
  now 62% passed
  i.e 12591*62/100 = 7788(passed)
  fail = total no of student - passed
  12561 - 7788 = 4773
