- as 62% passed so failed 38%
and no of appeared dis year is 10212+23%10212=10212+2348.76=12560.76
failed=38%12560.76=4773 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(0)
- i think
10212 applicants filed in last year and this year candidates were 23% more of previous number of candidates
so candidates appearing this year are 10212+(10212*.23)=12561 (approx)
now 62% passes the hiring test so
passed candidates= .62*12561=7788 (approx)
thus candidates who failed this year=12561-7788=4473
ans could be 4473 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- 10212+ 23%of 10212 = 12560, 62% of 12560 = 7787,
