    Q1. In an examination, 38% of students fail in English and 61% pass in Urdu and 23% fail in both. Find the actual failure percentage?

    • A) 46%
    • B) 61%
    • C) 54%
    • D) 70%

    Answer: 54%

    Explanation: Students failing only in English = 38 − 23 = 15%; failing only in Urdu (i.e., pass English, fail Urdu) = 39 − 23 = 16%; total failure = 15 + 16 + 23 = 54%.
