The number of students in the school who like to play cricket is
A872
B864
C982 ✓ Correct
D1022
Correct answer: (C) 982
Explanation
The answer is 982.
The cricket players are 60 percent of 240, 50 percent of 280, 40 percent of 320, 65 percent of 360 and 70 percent of 480.
That gives 144, 140, 128, 234 and 336.
Adding these gives 144 plus 140 plus 128 plus 234 plus 336.
That total is 982.
The other options do not match this sum.
So the answer is 982.
