    35%
    47%
    38%
    40%
    42%
    Option B
    Boys in C3 post = 64/100*2250+30/100*1700 = 1950
    Girls in C2 post = 64/100*1350+30/100*1550 = 13290
    Required% = 621/1329*100 == 47%

    21(13/17) days
    19(10/17) days
    Option D
    No. of girls = 56/100*750 = 420
    420*20 = 420*5 + 400*5 + 380*5 + 360*5 + 340*x
    => 340 + x = 600
    => x = 1(13/17)
    Required days = 5+5+5+5+1(13/17)
    = 21(13/17) days
