Ans. (c)
First find how many of the 6875 conform to Ostentia requirements of 125/60. By this standard (104 + 109) = 213 qualify. 10 % of these can appear for interview. 10 % of 213 = 21.3 which implies 21 or 22. Equivalent percentage values (30-22)/30*100 = 26% to (30-21)/30*100 = 30%. Hence 26% to 30%.
