A250

B240

C194

D195

Answer:

B. 240

Read Explanation:

Given:

Kachita's attendance in her school for academic session 2018- 2019 was 216 days.

Kachita's attendance % = 90%

Formula

x as a percentage of y = xy×100\frac{x}{y}\times{100}

 

Calculation:

Let total working days of the school were x days, then

x×(90100)x\times(\frac{90}{100}) = 216

⇒ x = 216×(10090)\times(\frac{100}{90})

⇒ x = 240 days.

∴ Total working days of the school were 240 days.
