    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

     No. of graduates in town F = 16500                   No. of post graduates in town F = 18450 Let the number of graduates in town F be \[x%\] of the number of post graduates, \[\therefore 16,500=x%\,\,\,of\,\,18,450\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,x%\,of\,18,450=16,500\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\frac{x}{100}\times 18450=16500\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,x\times 18,450=16,500\times 100\] \[\therefore x=\frac{16500\times 100}{18450}=\frac{11000}{123}\] Percentage = 89.43% OR No. of graduates in town F =16500 No. of post graduates in town F =18450 % of graduates over post graduates in town F \[=\frac{16500}{18450}\times 100\approx 89%\]
