The number of people who belong to the marketing specialization is 48.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
total applicants= 120
10% of total applicants are engineers
40% of total applicants are MBA graduates
rest (50%) of the total applicants are from other streams
50% of the MBA graduates belong to market specialization
To find:
number of people who belong to the marketing specialization
Solution:
The total number of applicants is 120
Let's find the number of MBA graduates using the percentage
∴ No. of MBA graduates= 40% of total applicants
∴ No. of MBA graduates= 40/100x120
= 2x24
∴ No. of MBA graduates= 48
Now, the number of people belonging to marketing specialization= 50% of the number of MBA graduates
∴ Number of people belonging to marketing specialization= 50% of 48
∴ Number of people belonging to marketing specialization= 50/100x48
∴ Number of people belonging to marketing specialization=24
Thus, 24 people out of 48 MBA applicants belong to the marketing specialization.
