\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Non-Business major( other)in class = 40-32=8\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Business majors who passed the exam = 75% of 24= 0.75 x 24= 18.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Other who passed exam= 24-18=6\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We have to find ration of others who passed with respect to total others. which is ...6/8= 0.75 = 75%.
