- Calculate Students Appeared:

- 4% did not appear, so 96% appeared.

- Calculate Students Who Passed:

- 10% of those who appeared couldn't pass, so 90% of 96% appeared passed.

- Calculate with Distinction:

- 50% got distinction marks among those who passed.

- Calculate Without Distinction:

- Remaining 50% passed without distinction = 432 students.

- Solve for Total Students:

- Total who passed = 432 x 2 = 864 (as non-distinction is 50% of those passed).

- This accounts for 90% of 96% of total students:

- Total students = 864 / (0.9 x 0.96) = 1000.

- Correct Option:

- Option 1: 1000
