Correct Answer: (2)
Solution: (2) Male students :
Mumbai $\Rightarrow 96000 \times \frac{28}{100} \times \frac{4}{7}$
$=15360$
Chennai $\Rightarrow 96000 \times \frac{20}{100} \times \frac{7}{12}$
$=11200$ Delhi $\Rightarrow 96000 \times \frac{11}{100} \times \frac{6}{11}$
$=5760$
Total male students $=15360+$
$11200+5760=32320$
Female Students :
Mumbai $\Rightarrow 96000 \times \frac{28}{100} \times \frac{3}{7}$
$=11520$
Chennai $\Rightarrow 96000 \times \frac{20}{100} \times \frac{5}{12}$
