Answer 1

Answer:

A. 560

Solution: Given: The number of students enrolled in hockey = 26% of 2800 The number of students enrolled in Tennis = 14% of 2800 Calculation: The number of students enrolled in hockey = (26/100) × 2800 = 728 The number of students enrolled in Tennis = (14/100) × 2800 = 392 Average number of students enrolled in Hockey and Tennis together = (728 + 392)/2 = 1120/2 ⇒ Average number of students enrolled = 560 ∴ The average number of students enrolled in Hockey and Tennis together is 560
