Direction : Study the following table and answer the questions that follow : Number of applications received and approved by six bank branches (A, B, C, D, E and F) in a yearBranch Number of Applications - Received Number of Applications - Approved A 480 360 B 600 480 C 720 540 D 800 640 E 900 720 F 1000 750
The combined number of applications not approved by Branches A, C and F constitutes what fraction of the total applications received by these branches ?
\( \frac{1}{4} \)
Applications not approved = received - approved.
A: \( 480 - 360 = 120 \), C: \( 720 - 540 = 180 \), F: \( 1000 - 750 = 250 \)
Total not approved = \( 120 + 180 + 250 = 550 \); total received = \( 480 + 720 + 1000 = 2200 \)
Fraction = \( \frac{550}{2200} = \frac{1}{4} \). Check: \( 2200 \div 4 = 550 \).
Hence, \( \frac{1}{4} \).
