So, revenue earned by Philips = 38000×750 = Rs. 28500000
Total number of appliances sold by Samsung in 2015 = 42000
Given, average price of each appliance = Rs. 720
So, revenue earned by Samsung = 42000×720 = Rs. 30240000

Total number of appliances sold by Samsung = 20000 + 35000 + 42000 + 30000 + 50000 = 177000
Total number of appliances sold by Philips = 30000 + 35000 + 38000 + 25000 + 45000 = 173000
Therefore, difference in the number of appliances sold = 177000 – 173000 = 4000

 

Directions: (6-10) Read the following graph carefully and answer the questions.The following graph shows the percentage distribution of the expenditure on different departments in two hostels of IIT Roorkee.

6.If the total expenditure of Kasturba Bhavan is Rs. 30 lacs and the total expenditure of Sarojini Bhavan is 1.5 times the total expenditure of Kasturba Bhavan, then the difference in the expenditure on Fest celebration in Kasturba Bhavan and Sarojini Bhavan will be?

B  Rs. 2.9 lacs
C  Rs. 3.4 lacs
D  Rs. 5.1 lacs
E  Rs. 3.2 lacs

Show Correct Answers

D. Rs. 5.1 lacs

 

Total expenditure of Sarojini Bhavan = 30×1.5 = 45 lacs
Expenditure on fest celebration in Kasturba Bhavan = 30×0.25 = Rs.7.5 lacs
Expenditure on fest celebration in Sarojini Bhavan = 45×0.28 = Rs.12.6 lacs
Required difference = 12.6 – 7.5 = Rs.5.1 lacs

7.If Rs.10 lacs is left (which is 20% of the total amount allocated for expenditure in Kasturba Bhavan) after the total amount is spent on all the departments in Kasturba Bhavan, then the total amount spent on medical facility and worker’s salary in Kasturba Bhavan will be?
A  Rs. 8.9 lacs
B  Rs. 11.2 lacs
C  Rs. 21.4 lacs

A  2:3
B  2:1
C  4:5
D  3:7
E  1:3

Show Correct Answers

C. 4:5

Let the total expenditure in Kasturba Bhavan for all departments be x and the total
expenditure in Sarojini Bhavan for all departments be y.
0.05x + 0.08y = 3 — (1)
0.1x + 0.1 y = 4.5 — (2)
On solving (1) and (2), we get
x = 20 and y = 25
Required ratio = 20: 25 = 4:5
