The following table shows the number of misprints in various pages of a book.

Number of misprints (per page)	0	1	2	3	4	5
Number of pages	154	95	36	7	6	2

What is the total number of pages in the book and approximately what percentage of them are erroneous?

Correct option is D

Given:

Table shows the number of misprints in a book

Formula Used:

Percent = $$\frac{Part\ Value}{Total\ Value} \times 100$$​​

Solution:

Total number of pages = 154 + 95 + 36 + 7 + 6 + 2 = 300

Total number of pages which are erroneous = 95 + 36 + 7 + 6 + 2 = 146

Percent of pages which are erroneous = $$\frac{146}{300} \times 100 = 48.6\% \sim 49\%$$​​
