Answer 1

The percentage of pupils who qualified for the MTAP Competition is calculated by dividing 75 by 200 and then multiplying by 100, resulting in 37.5%. Hence, the correct answer is b. 37.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage of pupils who qualified for the MTAP Competition, we need to divide the number of qualifying students by the total number of pupils and then multiply the result by 100 to convert it into a percentage. In this case, 75 pupils qualified out of 200, so we perform the following calculation:

(75 ÷ 200) × 100 = 37.5%

Hence, the correct answer is b. 37.5%.
