Solution:
- From school P, the students playing carom selected for national level competition
$ =\frac{220\times 40}{100}\times \frac{25}{100}=22 $
From school T the students playing carrom selected for national level competition $ =\frac{280\times 45}{100}\times \frac{2}{3}=84 $
$ \therefore $ Total number of students selected for national level competition from school P and T together
