  2. 33.33%
  3. 16.66%
  4. 37.50%
  5. None of the above

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : 29.42%

Data Interpretation Question 1 Detailed Solution

Given: 100

Total positive corona cases = 150000

Percentage of positive corona cases in Jaipur = 22%

Percentage of positive corona cases in Kanpur = 17%

Calculation:

The number of positive corona cases in Jaipur = 150000 × 22/100

⇒ 33000

⇒ The number of positive corona cases in Kanpur = 150000 × 17/100

⇒ 25500 

⇒ Required percentage = [(33000 - 25500)/25500] × 100

⇒ (7500/25500) × 100% 

⇒ Required percentage = 500/17 = 29.42%

 Difference in cases in Jaipur when compared to Kanpur = 22% - 17% = 5%

Percentage difference = 5/17 × 100 = 29.41%

∴ The corona cases in Jaipur is 29.42% more than that of Kanpur.

The number of positive corona cases in Kanpur = 150000 × 17/100

⇒ 25500

The number of positive corona cases in Mumbai = 150000 × 35/100

⇒ 52500

⇒ Total positive cases in Dehli, Kanpur and Mumbai = 39000 + 25500 + 52500

⇒ 117000

⇒ Required average = 117000/3 = 39000

Average percentage of cases in Delhi, Kanpur and Mumbai =  (26 + 17 + 35)%/3 

⇒ Average number = 78%/3 × 150000 = 39000

∴ The average number of positive cases in Delhi, Kanpur and Mumbai is 39000.

Percentage of positive corona cases in Mumbai = 35%

Calculation:

The number of positive corona cases in Delhi = 150000 × 26/100

⇒ 39000

The number of positive corona cases in Kanpur = 150000 × 17/100

⇒ 25500

⇒ The number of positive corona cases in Mumbai = 150000 × 35/100

⇒ 52500

⇒ Total number of positive corona cases in Delhi and Kanpur together = 39000 + 25500

⇒ 64500

⇒ Required difference = 64500 - 52500

⇒ 12000

 Total number of corona cases in Delhi and Kanpur = 26% + 17% = 43%

Total percentage of corona cases in Mumbai = 35%

Difference = (43 - 35)% × 150000 = 12000

∴ The required difference is 12000.

  5. None of the above

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 75

Data Interpretation Question 6 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Calculation: 

Let the total number of calls be 1000z.

Initial calls (% out of total calls) of A = (1000z × 40/100) = 400z

Initial calls (% out of total calls) of B = (1000z × 30/100) = 300z

Initial calls (% out of total calls) of C = (1000z × 30/100) = 300z

Lead calls (% out of initial calls) of A = (400z × 80/100) = 320z

Lead calls (% out of initial calls) of B = (300z × x/100) = 3zx

Lead calls (% out of initial calls) of C = (300z × 88/100) = 264z

Final received calls (% out of lead calls) of A = (320z × 90/100) = 288z

Final received calls (% out of lead calls) of B = (3zx × 80/100) = 3zx × (4/5)

Final received calls (% out of lead calls) of C = (264z × y/100)

Total number of initial calls in the company = 24000

⇒ (400z + 300z + 300z) = 24000

⇒ 1000z = 24000

⇒ z = (24000/1000)

⇒ z = 24

Total number of calls not received calls by C = (300h – 264z × y/100)

⇒ (300 × 24 –  264z × y/100)

⇒ (7200 – 264z × y/100)

According to the question

Total number of calls not received by company C is 4464 less than the total number of calls received by company A

⇒ (7200 – 264z × y/100) + 4464 = 288z

⇒ (7200 – 264 × 24 × y/100) + 4464 = 288 × 24

⇒ 7200 – 6336y/100 + 4464 = 6912

⇒ (720000 – 6336y + 446400)/100 = 6912

⇒ (720000 – 6336y + 446400) = 6912 × 100

⇒ (1166400 – 6336y) = 691200

⇒ (-6336y) = (691200 – 1166400)

⇒ (-6336y) = -475200

⇒ y = [-475200/(-6336)]

⇒ y = 75

∴ The value of y is 75

Calculation:

Number less than 200 = 12

Number less than 250 = 26

Number less than between 250 and 200 = (26 – 12)

⇒ 14

Again,

Number less than 250 = 26

Number less than 300 = 34

Number less than between 300 and 250 = (34 – 26)

⇒ 8

Persons earn Rs. 200 or more but less than Rs. 300 = (14 + 8)

⇒ 22

∴ Required persons is 22

Calculation:

Number of families having 1 member = 5

Total members = 5

Number of families having 2 members = 30

Total members = 60

Number of families having 3 members = 45

Total members = 135

Number of families having 4 members = 40

Total members = 160

Number of families having 5 members = 25

Total members = 125

Number of families having 6 members = 5

Total members = 30

So, the total membes in all types of families = 5 + 60 + 135 + 160 + 125 + 30 = 515

Total number of families = 5 + 30 + 45 + 40 + 25 + 5 =150

The average family size = 515 / 150 = 3.4

Hence, option 3 is correct.

Calculation:

Total visitors = Male visitors + Female visitors

= 2000 + 1500

= 3500

The total visitors in the age group 25 - 35 is = 27% of 3500 = 945

so

The number of male visitors in the age group 25 - 35 is = 60% of 945 = 567

Similarly,

The total visitors in the age group 45 - 60 is = 29% of 3500 = 1015

so

The number of female visitors in the age group 45 - 60 is = 20% of 1015 = 203

The expected ratio will be,

567 : 203

⇒ 81: 29
