In an examination, 90% of candidates passed in English and 95% passed in Maths. If 85% of candidates passed in both subjects, then what percentage of candidates failed in both subjects?

1. 5
2. 2
3. 4
4. 0

Correct answer: 0

Solution

The percentage who passed at least one subject is $90 + 95 - 85 = 100\%$. So everyone passed in at least one subject, meaning nobody failed in both subjects.
