Answer 1

Answer:

3919832.65306

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is focused on percentages.

Now given that 49% of a number is  1,920,718

we can say let the number be x

so 49% of x=  1,920,718

now expressing this problem mathematically we have

(49/100)*x=  1,920,718

0.49x= 1,920,718

divide both sides by 0.49 we have

x=  1,920,718/0.49

x= 3919832.65306

Therefore the total that were granted degree that year was 3919832.65306
