Total Questions: 30

1. Directions (1-5): The pie given below shows the total population in five cities (A, B, C, D, E) Total Population = 1200

Ques : In city F, the population of males is 50% more than the total population in D and female population is 20% less than the average population of B and E. The total population of F (male + females) is what percentage of total population of C?

Correct Answer: (a) 152.5% 
Solution:

ATQ,
(2p + 5 + 8 + p + 15 + 12)% = 100%
⇒ 3p + 40 = 100
⇒ 3p = 60
⇒ p = 20

Cities — Total Population
A — 45% of 1200 = 540
B — 8% of 1200 = 96
C — 20% of 1200 = 240
D — 15% of 1200 = 180
E — 12% of 1200 = 144

Males in F = 150% of 180 = 270
Females in F = 80% of (96+144)/2 = 96
Total population of F = 270 + 96 = 366
Required percentage = 366/240 × 100 = 152.5%

2. Find the difference between sum of total population of B and C and total population of E.

Correct Answer: (d) 192 
Solution:Required answer = (96 + 240) − 144 = 192

3. In C, the ratio of males and females is 2:5 and females to children is 1:1. Find the ratio of children in C to total population of E.

Correct Answer: (e) 25:36
Solution:Ratio of males : females = 2 : 5
Ratio of females : children = 1 : 1
Ratio of males : female : children = 2 : 5 : 5
Children in C = 5/(2+5+5) × 240 = 100
Required ratio = 100 : 144 = 25 : 36

4. The population of cities D and E is what percentage more/less than the total population of A and C?

Correct Answer: (b) 58.46% 
Solution:Required answer = [(540 + 240) − (180 + 144)] / (540 + 240) × 100
= 456/780 × 100 = 58.46%

5. Out of the total population of all the cities 35% are females and 55% of the total population of city D are females. Total females in all the cities except D is how many more/ less than total population of A?

Correct Answer: (b) 219 
Solution:

Total females in all the cities = 35% of 1200 = 420
Females in D = 55% of 180 = 99
Females in all the cities except D = 420 − 99 = 321
Required answer = 540 − 321 = 219

6. Directions (6-9): Read the information and answer the following questions.

The information shows the number of people (i.e. 100) three type of beverages like tea, coffee and milk. The ratio of people like only tea and only coffee is 5:3. The people who like only milk is equal to the people who like only tea and coffee together. The people like all the three beverages are 16. The people who like only milk and tea together is 30% more than the people who like only coffee and milk together. People who like only coffee and milk together 20, which is double than the people who like only tea.

Ques : Find the number of people who like only one beverage

Correct Answer: (a) 27 
Solution:

Total people who like all the beverages = 100

ATQ, a:c = 5:3 = 5x : 3x ...(i)
⇒ g = b
⇒ e = 16
⇒ d = 130% of f
⇒ d : f = 13 : 10
⇒ f = 20
⇒ d = (13/10) × 20 = 26
⇒ 20 = 2×5x
⇒ 2 = x

Put the value in Eq. (i), we get
a = 10 and c = 6

Also, 10 + 6 + b + 20 + 26 + 16 + g = 100
⇒ 22 = b + g (since, b and g are equal)
⇒ b = g = 11

Required answer = 10 + 6 + 11 = 27

7. The people who like coffee is what percentage of people who like all the three beverages together?

Correct Answer: (b) 331.35% 
Solution:

People who like coffee = 11 + 6 + 20 + 16 = 53
Required answer = 53/16 × 100 = 331.35%

8. Find the ratio of people who like only two beverages together to like only coffee.

Correct Answer: (d) 19:2 
Solution:

Required ratio = 20 + 26 + 11 : 6
= 57 : 6 = 19 : 2

9. Find the difference between people who like milk and tea.

Correct Answer: (e) 10
Solution:People who like milk = 73
People who like tea = 63
Required difference = 73 − 63 = 10

10. Directions (10-15): Bar graph given below shows the total number of graduate and post graduate employees in five different companies. Table shows the difference between graduate and posts graduate employees

Note – Total Employees = Graduate + Post Graduate Employees
Graduate employees are more than Post Graduate Employees.

Ques: Find the difference between average number of graduate employees in B and D and average number of post graduate employees in A and E.

Correct Answer: (a) 41 
Solution:

Let the graduate and post graduate employees be g and p, respectively.

In A,
g + p = 220
and g − p = 4

Solving above equations, we get
g = (220 + 4)/2 = 112
and p = 220 − 112 = 108

Similarly, for others

Companies — Graduate + Post Graduate Employees — Graduate Employees — Post Graduate Employees
A — 220 — 112 — 108
B — 196 — (196 + 2)/2 = 99 — 196 − 99 = 97
C — 224 — (224 + 36)/2 = 130 — 224 − 130 = 94
D — 200 — (200 + 90)/2 = 145 — 200 − 145 = 55
E — 204 — (204 + 96)/2 = 150 — 204 − 150 = 54

Total — 1044 — 636 — 408


Required answer = (99 + 145)/2 − (108 + 54)/2

= 122 − 81 = 41
