Long Answer TypeIf 60% people in a city like cricket, 30% like football and the remaining like other games, then what per cent of the people like other games? If the total number of people are 50 lakh, find the exact number who like each type of game.
∵       People who like cricket = 60%
      People who like football = 30
∴   People who like other games = [100 - (60 + 30)]%
                                          = [100 - 90]%
                                          = 10%
Now, Total number of people = 50,00,000
∴           60% of 50,00,000 =
                               Â
                                       = 6 
500000
                                       = 30,00,000
             30% of 50,00,000 = 
                                       Â
                                        = 3 
500000
                                        = 15,00,000
            10% of 50,00,000 = 
                                      = 1 
500000
                                      = 5,00,000
Thus, the number of people who like
                     Cricket = 30,00,000
                      Football = 15,00,000
                   Other games = 5,00,000
