The pie charts below show the percentage of students in each faculty at North West University and the number of non-US students in the Arts faculty. These percentages have been rounded to the nearest whole number. There are a total of 1049 students in Arts faculty. Use this information to answer the following questions.

Question 37

How many students are there in the Engineering faculty?

Solution

Let the total number of students be x
Now it is given that 1049 students are in arts which is 23%
so we can say
x(23/100) = 1049
We get x =4560
Now Engineering faculty = 9% 
so we get number = (0.09)(4560) = 410
