if total jobs created= 100

Computing (74%) = 74 jobs created

Security, Software Development, and Database Administration = 37 % (3 % + 32 % + 2 %) of computing jobs
i.e 37% of 74 = 27.38 jobs.

27.38 / 74 = 37% .

Shouldn't the answer be 37%. Please help

Kindly check the total percentage for the sub jobs created under computing. You will find out that that percentage also adds up to 74 and as you pointed out rightly the sub jobs the question ask add up to 37 . And 37 is 50% of 75

Hope this helps 。
