Question

In a survey of students, each student selected from a list of 12 songs the 2 songs that the student liked best. If each song was selected 4 times, how many students were surveyed?A) 96B) 48C) 32D) 24E) 18

Answer 1

Answer: Option 'D' is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of songs = 12

Number of songs that the student liked best = 2

Number of times each song was selected = 4

So, Total number of selection would be

`12* 4=48`

And the total number of students would be

`(48)/(2)=24`

Hence, there are 24 students in a survey.

Therefore, Option 'D' is correct.
