1.What is the total number of MCA students studying in all the five colleges combined in 2010?

A 10292
B 10297
C 10302
D 10307
E  None of these

<strong>Show </strong><strong>Correct Answers</strong>

Correct Answer – B.10297

Explanation:

Let the number of BCA students studying in college A = x

So the number of B.Tech students studying in college A = 1.75x

So according to question: 1.75x + x = 7500 – 2325 – 1875

2.75x = 3300

So x = 1200

1.75x = 1.75 × 1200 = 2100

So the number of BCA students and the number of B.Tech students studying in college A are 1200 and 2100 respectively.

Let the number of B.Tech students and the number of MBA students studying in college E are 10y and 9y respectively.

So according to question: 10y + 9y = 8100 – 1377 – 2106

19y = 4617, y = 243

9y = 9 × 243 = 2187

Number of B.Tech students and the number of MBA students studying in college E are 2430 and 2187 respectively.

Let the number of BCA students studying in college C = z

So the number of MBA students studying in college C = 2z

So, according to question: z + 2z = 7200 – 1944 – 2016

3z = 3240, z = 1080

Number of BCA students and the number of MBA students studying in college C are 1080 and 2160 respectively.

Number of MBA students studying in college B = 6800 – 1700 – 952 – 2380 = 1768

Number of MCA students studying in college D = 6400 – 1472 – 2176 – 832 = 1920

2.Number of MBA students studying in college B and D combined were approximately what percentage more than the number of BCA students studying in college A and E combined?

A 35%
B 42%
C 48%
D 53%
E 57%

<strong>Show </strong><strong>Correct Answers</strong>

Correct Answer – D. 53%

Explanation:

Let the number of BCA students studying in college A = x

So the number of B.Tech students studying in college A = 1.75x

So according to question: 1.75x + x = 7500 – 2325 – 1875

2.75x = 3300

So x = 1200

1.75x = 1.75 × 1200 = 2100

So the number of BCA students and the number of B.Tech students studying in college A are 1200 and 2100 respectively.

Let the number of B.Tech students and the number of MBA students studying in college E are 10y and 9y respectively.

So according to question: 10y + 9y = 8100 – 1377 – 2106

19y = 4617, y = 243

9y = 9 × 243 = 2187

Number of B.Tech students and the number of MBA students studying in college E are 2430 and 2187 respectively.

Let the number of BCA students studying in college C = z

So the number of MBA students studying in college C = 2z

So, according to question: z + 2z = 7200 – 1944 – 2016

3z = 3240, z = 1080

Number of BCA students and the number of MBA students studying in college C are 1080 and 2160 respectively.

Number of MBA students studying in college B = 6800 – 1700 – 952 – 2380 = 1768

Number of MCA students studying in college D = 6400 – 1472 – 2176 – 832 = 1920

Number of BCA students studying in college A and E together = 1200 + 1377 = 2577

Desired percentage = (3944 – 2577)/2577 × 100 = 136700/2577 = 53.046% ~ 53%

3. Which college has the second lowest number of B.Tech students studying in it?

A A
B B
C C
D D
E E

<strong>Show </strong><strong>Correct Answers</strong>

Correct Answer – B. B

Explanation:

Let the number of BCA students studying in college A = x

So the number of B.Tech students studying in college A = 1.75x

So according to question: 1.75x + x = 7500 – 2325 – 1875

2.75x = 3300

So x = 1200

1.75x = 1.75 × 1200 = 2100

So the number of BCA students and the number of B.Tech students studying in college A are 1200 and 2100 respectively.

Let the number of B.Tech students and the number of MBA students studying in college E are 10y and 9y respectively.

So according to question: 10y + 9y = 8100 – 1377 – 2106

19y = 4617, y = 243

9y = 9 × 243 = 2187

Number of B.Tech students and the number of MBA students studying in college E are 2430 and 2187 respectively.

Let the number of BCA students studying in college C = z

So the number of MBA students studying in college C = 2z

So, according to question: z + 2z = 7200 – 1944 – 2016

3z = 3240, z = 1080

Number of BCA students and the number of MBA students studying in college C are 1080 and 2160 respectively.

Number of MBA students studying in college B = 6800 – 1700 – 952 – 2380 = 1768

<strong>Show </strong><strong>Correct Answers</strong>

Correct Answer – A. 2210

Explanation:

Let the number of BCA students studying in college A = x

So the number of B.Tech students studying in college A = 1.75x

So according to question: 1.75x + x = 7500 – 2325 – 1875

2.75x = 3300

So x = 1200

1.75x = 1.75 × 1200 = 2100

So the number of BCA students and the number of B.Tech students studying in college A are 1200 and 2100 respectively.

Let the number of B.Tech students and the number of MBA students studying in college E are 10y and 9y respectively.

A 5:7
B 9:10
C 15:17
D 29:34
E 21:23

<strong>Show </strong><strong>Correct Answers</strong>

Correct Answer – C. 15:17

Explanation:

Let the number of BCA students studying in college A = x

So the number of B.Tech students studying in college A = 1.75x

So according to question: 1.75x + x = 7500 – 2325 – 1875

2.75x = 3300

So x = 1200

1.75x = 1.75 × 1200 = 2100

So the number of BCA students and the number of B.Tech students studying in college A are 1200 and 2100 respectively.

Let the number of B.Tech students and the number of MBA students studying in college E are 10y and 9y respectively.

So according to question: 10y + 9y = 8100 – 1377 – 2106

19y = 4617, y = 243

9y = 9 × 243 = 2187

Number of B.Tech students and the number of MBA students studying in college E are 2430 and 2187 respectively.

Let the number of BCA students studying in college C = z

So the number of MBA students studying in college C = 2z

So, according to question: z + 2z = 7200 – 1944 – 2016

3z = 3240, z = 1080

Number of BCA students and the number of MBA students studying in college C are 1080 and 2160 respectively.

Number of MBA students studying in college B = 6800 – 1700 – 952 – 2380 = 1768

The pie chart given below provides information about the population of five different cities of Kangra in 2017. Population of Nagrota in 2017 was 60480.

Note: Total population of a city = Number of men + Number of women + Number of children

Male population = Number of men + Number of boys

Female population = Number of women + Number of girls

6.25% of the population in Dharaman are children out of which 11325 are boys. The number of women and number of men are in the ratio of 3:4 respectively. Find the difference in the male population and female population of Dharaman.

A  9050
B  9150
C  9250
D  9350
E  9450

<strong>Show </strong><strong>Correct Answers</strong>

Correct Answer – B. 9150

Explanation:

Total population of all the five cities of Kangra = 60480 / 0.16 = 378000

Population of Dharaman = 0.25 × 378000 = 94500

Number of children in Dharaman = 0.25 × 94500 = 23625

Number of girls in Dharaman = 23625 – 11325 = 12300

Number of men and women combined in Dharaman = 94500 – 23625 = 70875

Number of women in Dharaman = 70875 × 3 / 7 = 30375

Number of men in Dharaman = 70875 × 4 / 7 = 40500

Male population of Dharaman = 40500 + 11325 = 51825

Female population of Dharaman = 30375 + 12300 = 42675

Required difference = 51825 – 42675 = 9150

A 7260
B 7360
C 7460
D 7560
E None of these

<strong>Show </strong><strong>Correct Answers</strong>

Correct Answer – D. 7560

Explanation:

Total population of all the five cities of Kangra = 60480 / 0.16 = 378000

Population of Jiya = 0.2 × 378000 = 75600

Literate population of Jiya = 0.40 × 75600 = 30240

Illiterate population of Jiya = 75600 – 30240 = 45360

Population of Chandpur = 75600 / 0.70 = 108000

Literate population of Chandpur = 0.65 × 108000 = 70200

Illiterate population of Chandpur = 108000 – 70200 = 37800

Required difference = 45360 – 37800 = 7560

E 856

<strong>Show </strong><strong>Correct Answers</strong>

Correct Answer – C. 816

Explanation:

Total population of all the five cities of Kangra = 60480 / 0.16 = 378000

Population of Panchrukhi = 0.24 × 378000 = 90720

Population of Panchrukhi that speaks English = 0.35 × 90720 = 31752

Population of Panchrukhi that speaks Punjabi = 0.45 × 90720 = 40824

Population of Panchrukhi that speaks only English = 31752 – 7212 = 24540

Population of Panchrukhi that speak neither of the two languages = 90720 – 31752 – 40824 + 7212 = 25356

Required difference = 25356 – 24540 = 816

B 108400
C 88200
D 64800
E None of these

<strong>Show </strong><strong>Correct Answers</strong>

Correct Answer – A. 129600

Explanation:

Total population of all the five cities of Kangra = 60480/ 0.16 = 378000

Population of Panchrukhi = 0.24 × 378000 = 90720

Population of Panchrukhi migrated to Baijnath = 0.1 × 90720 = 9072

Population of Nagrota migrated to Baijnath = 0.15 × 60480 = 9072

Population of Baijnath before migration = (9072 + 9072)/0.14 = 129600
