Approximately, by what percent the number of candidates interviewed by SBI on Thursday increased with respect to that interviewed on previous day?

The correct answer is 92%

Given:

SBI (Thursday) = 46

Calculation:

Number of candidates interviewed by SBI on Wednesday = 246 - 50 - 56 - 46 - 30 - 40 = 24

$$\Rightarrow \text{Required percentage increase} = \frac{46 - 24}{24} \times 100 = 91.67\% \approx 92\%$$

Therefore, the number of candidates interviewed by SBI on Thursday showed an increase of 92% compared to the number of candidates interviewed on the previous day.
