College C: 2920 employees, ratio 9:11.
College D: 2760 employees, ratio 10:13.

For school E, the difference between the number of boys who scored 95% and above marks and boys who scored between 90-95% marks is:
A115
B120
C110 ✓ Correct
D105
Correct answer: (C) 110 — The difference for school E is 110.
Explanation
★The difference for school E is 110.
★Boys of E scoring 95% and above are 24 percent of 6000 times 4 over 9, that is 640.
★Boys of E scoring 90-95% are 21 percent of 10000 times 5 over 14, that is 750.
★The difference is 750 minus 640.
★This equals 110.
