Q:

600 students took the test on physics and chemistry. 35% students failed in physics and 45% students failed in chemistry and 40% of those who passed in chemistry also passed in physics, then how many students failed in both:

A) 162 B) 138
C) 60 D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) None of these

Explanation:

                  Physics             Chemistry

Failed           35%                    45%

Passed         65%                    55%

Passed in both = 22% of total student

percentage of students who are passed in any of the physics or chemistry or both =(65+55) - 22 = 98%

So, the percentage of students who are failed in both = 2%

Therefore, total failed (in both subjects) students = 12
