5. What is the ratio of candidates passed to the candidates enrolled from institute P?

A. 9:11 B. 14:17 C. 6:11 D. 9:17

Answer

1. ANSWER : C

Explanation - Required percentage= $\frac{9 % o f 5700}{8 % o f 8550} \times 100$ % = $\frac{9 \times 5700}{8 \times 8550} \times 100$ % = 75%

2. ANSWER : B

Explanation - The percentage of candidates passed to candidates enrolled can be determined for each institute as under:

P = $\frac{18 % o f 5700}{22 % o f 8550} \times 100$ % = 54.55%

Q = $\frac{17 % o f 5700}{15 % o f 8550} \times 100$ % = 75.56%

R = $\frac{13 % o f 5700}{10 % o f 8550} \times 100$ % = 86.67%

S = $\frac{16 % o f 5700}{17 % o f 8550} \times 100$ % = 62.75%

T = $\frac{9 % o f 5700}{8 % o f 8550} \times 100$ % = 75%

V= $\frac{15 % o f 5700}{12 % o f 8550} \times 100$ % = 83.33%

X= $\frac{12 % o f 5700}{16 % o f 8550} \times 100$ % = 50%

Highest of these is 86.67% corresponding to institute R.

3. ANSWER : C

Explanation - Required difference = [(16% + 18%) of 5700] - [(8% + 10%) of 8550]

= [(34% of 5700) - (18% of 8550)]

= (1938 - 1539)

= 399

4. ANSWER : B

Explanation - Candidates passed from institutes Q and R together = [(13% + 17%) of 5700] = 30% of 57000.

Candidates enrolled from institutes Q and R together = [(15% + 10%) of 8550] = 25% of 8550.

Required Percentage = $\frac{30 % o f 5700}{25 % o f 8550} \times 100$ % = 80%

5. ANSWER : C

Explanation - Required ratio = $\frac{18 % o f 5700}{22 % o f 8550}$ = 6/11

1. 161.52% 2. 195.5% 3. 182% 4. 190% 5. 171.42%

Answer

1. Answer : 1

Explanation : Quantity of Guava at Shop A = $1200 \times \frac{10}{100}$ = 120 kg

Quantity of Guava at Shop B = $1000 \times \frac{16}{100}$ = 160 kg

Therefore, Required difference = 160 - 120 = 40 kg

2. Answer : 2

Explanation : Cost of Mango at Shop A = $30 \times 1200 \times \frac{24}{100}$ = Rs. 8640

Cost of Apple = $40 \times 1200 \times \frac{16}{100}$ = Rs. 7680

Cost of Orange = $20 \times 1200 \times \frac{20}{100}$ = Rs.4800

Therefore, Required Ratio = 8640 : 6780 : 4800 = 9 : 8 : 5

3. Answer : 3

Explanation : Quantity of Mango at Shop B = $1000 \times \frac{24}{100}$ = 240 kg

Quantity of Mango at Shop A = $1200 \times \frac{24}{100}$ = 288 kg

Therefore, Req % = $288 \times \frac{100}{240}$ = 120% of the quantity of Mango at Shop A

4. Answer : 4

Explanation : Cost of total fruits at Shop A = Cost of Mango + Cost of Apple + Cost of Guava + Cost of orange + Cost of other fruits

= $1200 \times \frac{24}{100} \times 30 + 1200 \times \frac{16}{100} \times 40 + 1200 \times \frac{10}{100} \times 18 + 1200 \times \frac{20}{100} \times 20 + 1200 \times \frac{30}{100} \times 15$

= Rs. 28680

Cost of Total Fruits at Shop B

= $1000 \times \frac{24}{100} \times 30 + 1000 \times \frac{14}{100} \times 40 + 1000 \times \frac{16}{100} \times 18 + 1000 \times \frac{20}{100} \times 20 + 1000 \times \frac{26}{100} \times 15$

= 7200 + 5600 + 2880 + 4000 + 3900

= Rs. 23580

Therefore, Req.difference = 28680 - 23580 = Rs.5100

5. Answer : 5

Explanation: Quantity of Orange at Shop A = $1200 \times \frac{20}{100}$ = 240 kg

Quantity of Apple at Shop B = $1000 \times \frac{14}{100}$ = 140 kg

Therefore, Req % = $\frac{240 \times 100}{140}$ = 171.42% more than the quantity of Apple at Shop B.
