What is the difference between the number of students who passed in the test from School D in the year 2020 and the number of students who failed in the test from School B in the year 2022?

The correct answer is

126

Step 1: Number of students passed from School D in the year 2020

Total students appeared from School D in the year 2020 = $1752$

Ratio of passed and failed = $7 : 5$

Sum of ratios = $7 + 5 = 12$

Number of passed students = $\frac{7}{12} \times 1752$

Number of passed students = $7 \times 146 = 1022$

Step 2: Number of failed students from School B in the year 2022

Total students appeared from School B in the year 2022 = $1904$

Ratio of passed and failed = $9 : 8$

Sum of ratios = $9 + 8 = 17$

Number of failed students = $\frac{8}{17} \times 1904$

Number of failed students = $8 \times 112 = 896$

Step 3: Difference between both numbers

Difference = $1022 - 896 = 126$

Thus, the correct option is Option 3 (126).
