Below pie chart shows the percentage distribution of number of doorbells sold by five shopkeeper:
Total number of doorbells sold by five shopkeepers = 14400

Ques : The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper H is what percentage more or less than the number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper L?

Correct Answer: (c) 45%
Solution:

Total number of doorbells sold by five shopkeepers = 14400

Shopkeepers

No. of doorbells sold

G

2592

H

4176

J

3312

K

1440

L

2880

Total

14400

The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper H = 4176
The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper L = 2880
Required percentage = (4176 - 2880)/2880 × 100 = 1296/2880 × 100 = 45%

Alternate method
Required percentage = (29 - 20)/20 × 100 = 45%

92. What is the ratio of the number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper H to the number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper G?

Correct Answer: (b) 29:18
Solution:

The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper H = 4176
The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper G = 2592
Required ratio = 4176/2592 = 29 : 18

Alternate method
Required ratio = 29 : 18

93. The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper K is approximately what percentage of the number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper J?

Correct Answer: (b) 44%
Solution:

The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper K = 1440
The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper J = 3312
Required percentage = (1440/3312) × 100 = 44%

Alternate method
Required percentage = 10/23 × 100 = 43.47% ≈ 44%

94. What is the difference between the number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper L and number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper H?

Correct Answer: (c) 1296
Solution:

The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper L = 2880
The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper H = 4176
Required difference = 2880 - 4176 = 1296

Alternate method
Required difference = 14400 × (29 - 20)/100 = 1296

95. What is the average number of doorbells sold by shopkeepers G and K?

Correct Answer: (d) 2016
Solution:

The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper G = 2592
The number of doorbells sold by shopkeeper K = 1440
Required average = (2592 + 1440)/2 = 2016

Alternate method
Required average = 14400 × (18 + 10)/200 = 2016

96. Directions [96-100]: Study the following information carefully and answer the related questions.

Following pie-chart represents the break-up (in degrees) of number of government schools in six cities i.e., P, Q, R, S, T and U.

Total number of government schools in six cities together = 1800

Ques: What is the respective ratio of number of government schools in city Q to the number of government schools in city R and S together?

Correct Answer: (a) 2:5
Solution:Solution (96-100):

Number of government schools in city P
= (75°/360°) × 1800 = 375

Number of government schools in city Q
= (60°/360°) × 1800 = 300

Number of government schools in city R
= (105°/360°) × 1800 = 525

Number of government schools in city S
= (45°/360°) × 1800 = 225

Number of government schools in city T
= (33°/360°) × 1800 = 165

Number of government schools in city U
= (42°/360°) × 1800 = 210

Number of government schools in city Q = 300
Number of government schools in city R and S together = 525 + 225 = 750
Therefore, ratio = 300 : 750 = 2 : 5

97. In city Q, if the number of private schools is 40% less than that of government schools, then how many private schools are there in city Q?

Correct Answer: (c) 180
Solution:Number of government schools in city Q = 300
Therefore, number of private schools in city Q
= (100 - 40)% of 300 = 180

98. Number of government schools in city T is approximately what percentage of the number of government schools in city R?

Correct Answer: (b) 31%
Solution:Number of government schools in city T = 165
And the number of government schools in city R = 525
Therefore, percentage = (165/525) × 100 = 31% (approx.)

99. How many more government schools are there in city P as compared to that in city T?

Correct Answer: (e) 210
Solution:

Number of government schools in city P = 375
And the number of government schools in city T = 165
Therefore, required difference = 375 - 165 = 210

100. What is the difference between the number of government schools in city U and the average number of government schools in city R and T?

Correct Answer: (a) 135
Solution:

Number of government schools in city U = 210
And the average number of government schools in city R and T = (525 + 165)/2 = 345
Therefore, difference = 345 - 210 = 135
