(a).
(i).
Total number of candidates (who can met the minimum requirement of entering Form 6)
= 31,500 students / 35 %
= (31,500 / 0.35) students
= 90,000 students (ANSWER)
(ii).
Let c % of the candidates be the percentage of male candidates,
(c + 8) % of the candidates be the percentage of male candidates.
c % + (c + 8) % = 100%
(2c + 8) % = 100%
2c + 8 = 100
2 (c + 4) = 100
c + 4 = 50
c = 46 (%)
The number of male candidates (who can met the minimum requirement of entering Form 6)
= 90,000 students x 46%
= 41,400 students (ANSWER)
That is, the number of female candidates (who can met the minimum requirement of entering Form 6)
= 90,000 students x 54%
= 48,600 students
PROVE:
The number of male candidates + The number of female candidates
= 41,400 students + 48,600 students
= 90,000 students
= Total number of candidates (who can met the minimum requirement of entering Form 6)
