    Required number = total percent of students studying Art from Institute ‘B’ of 3800 + total percent of students studying Commerce from Institute ‘B’ of 4200

    Correct Option: C

    From above given graph , we have
    total number of students studying Arts = 3800
    total number of students studying Commerce = 4200
    total percent of students studying Art from Institute ‘B’ = 8%
    total percent of students studying Commerce from Institute ‘B’ = 17%
    Required number = total percent of students studying Art from Institute ‘B’ of 3800 + total percent of students studying Commerce from Institute ‘B’ of 4200
    = 8% of 3800 + 17% of 4200

    =
    8

    17
    × 4200 = 304 + 714 = 1018
    100100
