Answers :

Directions (1-5) :

1) Answer: c)

Total number of students enrolled for Dancing = 2500*(18/100) = 450

Total number of students enrolled for Singing = 2500*(14/100) = 350

Total number of girl students enrolled for Dancing =1200*(21/100) = 252

Total number of girl students enrolled for Singing = 1200*(12/100) = 144

Total number of boy students enrolled for Dancing = 450 – 252 = 198

Total number of boy students enrolled for Singing = 350 – 144 = 206

Required % = [(198 + 206)/(252 + 144)]*100

= > (404/396)*100 = 102.02 % = 102 %

2) Answer: b)

The total number of students enrolled for Drawing and Karathe together

= > 2500*(52/100) = 1300

The total number of girl students enrolled for Karathe and Swimming together

= > 1200*(50/100) = 600

Required difference = 1300 – 600 = 700

3) Answer: d)

Total number of students enrolled for Dancing = 2500*(18/100) = 450

Total number of girl students enrolled for Dancing =1200*(21/100) = 252

Total number of boy students enrolled for Dancing = 450 – 252 = 198

Total number of students enrolled for Swimming = 2500*(16/100) = 400

Total number of girl students enrolled for Swimming = 1200*(23/100) = 276

Total number of boy students enrolled for Swimming = 400 – 276 = 124

The total number of boy students enrolled for Dancing and Swimming together

= > 198 + 124 = 322

The total number of girl students enrolled for Drawing and Karathe together

= > 1200*(44/100) = 528

Required ratio = 322 : 528 = 161 : 264

4) Answer: a)

Total number of students enrolled for Singing = 2500*(14/100) = 350

Total number of girl students enrolled for Singing= 1200*(12/100) = 144

Total number of boy students enrolled for Singing = 350 – 144 = 206

Total number of students enrolled for Drawing = 2500*(24/100) = 600

Total number of girl students enrolled for Drawing = 1200*(17/100) = 204

Total number of boy students enrolled for Drawing = 600 – 204 = 396

Total number of students enrolled for Karathe = 2500*(28/100) = 700

Total number of girl students enrolled for Karathe = 1200*(27/100) = 324

Total number of boy students enrolled for Karathe = 700 – 324 = 376

Total number of boy students enrolled for Singing, Drawing and Karathe together

= > 206 + 396 + 376 = 978

Required average = 978/3 = 326

5) Answer: c)

Total number of students enrolled for Singing and Swimming together

= > 2500*(30/100) = 750

Total number of girl students enrolled for Dancing, Drawing and Karathe together

= > 1200*(65/100) = 780

Required % = [(780 – 750)/780]*100 = (30/780)*100 = 4 % less

Directions (6-10) :

6) Answer: b)

The ratio between the total amount spent on Golf to that of basket ball in the year 2012 = 3 : 4 (3x, 4x)

The total amount spent on Basket ball in 2012 = (330/3)*4 = 440

The average amount spent on Basket ball in all the given years together

= 488 crore

The total amount spent on Basket ball in all the given years together

= > 488*5 = 2440 crore

The total amount spent on Basket ball in the year 2015

= > 2440 – (440 + 480 + 500 + 530)

= > 2440 – 1950 = 490 Crore

7) Answer: d)

The total amount spent on golf in the year 2012 and 2013 together = 750 crore

The total amount spent on golf in the year 2013 = 750 – 330 = 420 crore

The total amount spent on Hockey in the year 2013 = 420 – 80 = 340 crore

Total amount spent in the year 2013 for all given sports together

= > 420 + 480 + 550 + 450 + 460 + 340

= > 2700 crore

Required average = 2700/6 = 450 crore

8) Answer: b)

The total amount spent on Basket ball and Kabaddi in the year 2013

= > 480 + 450 = 930 crore

The total amount spent on Hockey in the year 2015 and 2016 together

= > 420 + 430 = 850 crore

Required % = (930/850)*100 = 109.41 % = 110 %

9) Answer: a)

The ratio between the total amount spent on Hockey in the year 2012 and 2013 = > 16 : 17 (16x, 17x)

The total amount spent on Hockey in the year 2013 = 340 Crore

17x = 340

x = 20

The total amount spent on Hockey in the year 2012 and 2013 together

= > 20*33 = 660 crore

The total amount spent on Football in all the given years together

= > 480 + 460 + 420 + 500 + 510 = 2370 crore

The total amount spent on Hockey in all the given years together

= > 660 + 370 + 420 + 430 = 1880 crore

Required difference = 2370 – 1880 = 490 crore

10) Answer: c)

The total amount spent on Kabaddi in the year 2015 and 2016 together

= > 530 + 570 = 1100 crore

The total amount spent on Tennis in the year 2013 and 2014 together

= > 550 + 570 = 1120 crore

Required % = [(1120 – 1100)/1120]*100 = 2 % less
