Analyze Year 2018 Exam Results
We are given the performance data for the year 2018. The question asks for the percentage difference between the percentage of boys who passed and the percentage of girls who passed.
Percentage of Girls Who Passed in 2018
From the provided table, the percentage of girls who passed the examination in the year 2018 is directly given as 32%.
Percentage of Boys Who Failed in 2018

Calculate Percentage of Boys Who Passed in 2018
To find the percentage of boys who passed, we subtract the percentage of boys who failed from the total percentage (100%).
Using LaTeX for the calculation:
Percentage of Boys Passed = $100\% - \text{Percentage of Boys Failed}$
Percentage of Boys Passed = $100\% - 40\% = 60\%$
So, 60% of the boys passed the examination in 2018.
Calculate Percentage Difference
The question asks for the percentage difference between the percentage of boys who passed and the percentage of girls who passed in 2018.
The percentage difference is the absolute difference between these two values.
Using LaTeX for the calculation:
Percentage Difference = $|\text{Percentage of Boys Passed} - \text{Percentage of Girls Passed}| $
Percentage Difference = $|60\% - 32\%| $
Percentage Difference = $28\% $
Final Result
The percentage difference between the percentage of boys who passed and the percentage of girls who passed in the year 2018 is 28%.
