First case:

average of test score =70

number of students =p

total score of 'p' students = ( average of test score)*( number of students)

total score of 'p' students =70p

Second case:

average of test score =92

number of students =n

total score of 'n' students = ( average of test score)*( number of students)

total score of 'n' students =92n

total number of students = p+n

total average score =86

so, total score =86(p+n)

total score = total score of 'p' students +total score of 'n' students

86(p+n)=70p+92n

now, we can simplify it

86p+86n=70p+92n

86p-70p=92n-86n

16p=6n

now, we can find p/n

\frac{p}{n}= \frac{6}{16}

\frac{p}{n}= \frac{3}{8}................Answer

What is the yield on a corporate bond with a $1000
White raven [17]

The yield on the corporate bond of a face value of $1000 is 7.77%.

What is the percentage discount?

The percentage discount is the discount given on a product as compared to the given discount on 100 rupees.

Given, the face value of the bond is $1000.

Discounted price of the bond is $900.

Therefore, the fixed interest on the bond for that period will be

= $1000 × 7/100 = $70.

Now, the yield on that corporate  bond = 70 × 100/900 % = 7.77% .

Hence, the yield on the corporate bond of a face value of $1000 is 7.77%.
