Test: Table Charts - Question 3

Directions: The following chart represents the Foreign Exchange Reserves in different year. Analyse carefully and answer that questions follows.

Q. The ratio of the number of years, in which the foreign exchange reserves are above the average reserves, to those in which the reserves are below the average reserves is?

Detailed Solution for Test: Table Charts - Question 3

In this case, we first need to find the average forex reserve and then find the ratio between the years when they are above the average and below the average.
Average Forex = (2640 + 3720 + 2520 + 3360 + 3120 + 4320 + 5040 + 3120) / 8 = 3480
Now, the years that are below the average = 2000-01, 2002-03, 2003-04, 2004-05, 2007-08
The years that are above the average = 2001-02, 2005-06, 2006-07
Hence, the ratio will be 3:5

Test: Table Charts - Question 4

Directions: The following chart represents the Foreign Exchange Reserves in different year. Analyse carefully and answer that questions follows.

Q. For each year, the percent increase of foreign exchange reserves over the previous year, is the highest?

Detailed Solution for Test: Table Charts - Question 4

In this question we need to use percentages,
First the years in which forex rose compared to previous year = 2001-02, 2003-04, 2005-06, 2006-07
Percentage increase in these years compared to last year, 2001-02 = (3720 – 2640)/ 2640 * 100 = 40.9090%
2003-04 = (3360 – 2520)/ 2520 *100 = 33.33%
2005-06 = (4320 – 3120)/ 3120* 100 = 37.88%
2006-07 = (5040 – 4320) / 4320* 100 = 16.67%
Hence, the ans. Is 2001-02

Test: Table Charts - Question 5

Directions: The following chart represents the number of students of AMS careers at its Lucknow center who passed either the CAT exam or XAT exam or CET exam or none of these exams. (Assume that there are no students who passed more than one exam.)

Q. What was the percentage of students who succeeded in at least one of the three exams in 2000?

Detailed Solution for Test: Table Charts - Question 5

Total students = 170
No. of students who are in none category = 30
Therefore, percentage of students who have cleared at least one = [(170 – 30) / 170] x 100 = 82.35%

Test: Table Charts - Question 6

Directions: The following chart represents the number of students of AMS careers at its Lucknow center who passed either the CAT exam or XAT exam or CET exam or none of these exams. (Assume that there are no students who passed more than one exam.)

Q. What was the percentage of students who cleared CAT in 2000?

Detailed Solution for Test: Table Charts - Question 6

We need to calculate percentage of students who cleared CAT in 2000,
As shown above, there are 20 students who cleared CAT in 2000.
And, Total students are 170
Hence, 20/170 x 100 = 11.76%

Test: Table Charts - Question 7

Which students did not appear for the English examination?

Detailed Solution for Test: Table Charts - Question 7

Based on Condition II, we understand that the student who missed the Mathematics examination did not miss any other examination. This indicates that the Maths score is bound to be the average of the best 3 out of the 4 exam scores obtained by this candidate. Based on this inference, we can proceed with identifying the math score that can be represented as an average of the rest of the scores. We can straightaway eliminate Deep and Esha as potential candidates, given that their Mathematics score is greater than the rest of the exam scores.
After estimating the average scores for the rest of the candidates, we observe that only Carl has missed his Mathematics examination.
For Carl: best 3 out of 4 - 80(Hindi), 90(Social Science), 100(Science)
Avg. = 270/3 = 90 which matches the given value
∴ Carl missed his Mathematics examination.
Further, based on Condition III, we can surmise that the student who missed Hindi and Science should have similar average scores in these two subjects. We notice that Alva has the same score of 75 in both Hindi and Science. The same can be said about Deep, who has a score of 90 in both these subjects. Thus, one out of Alva and Deep missed out on Hindi and Science examination, while the second individual missed out only on the Hindi examination.
Since we know that Carl, Alva and Deep are unlikely to have missed out on the English exam, we can divert our attention to determining which individual out of Bithi, Esha and Foni failed to appear for this subject. However, we notice that Bithi's English score is greater than the rest of her scores, thereby helping us eliminate her as the potential candidate.
For Esha:  best 3 out of 4 - 85(Hindi), 95(Mathematics), 60(Science)
Avg. = 240/3 = 80 which matches the given value
∴  Esha most likely missed her English examination.
For Foni: best 3 out of 4 - 78(Mathematics), 83(Social Science), 88(Science)
Avg. = 249/3 = 83 which matches the given value
∴  Foni most likely missed her English examination.
Based on Condition I, we know that exactly two candidates missed the examinations for English, Hindi, Science, and Social Science.
For English, we determined these individuals to be Esha and Foni. For Hindi, we determined these individuals to be Alva and Deep. For Science, we know one of the individuals is either Alva or Deep. Given that Carl, Alva and Deep cannot be a part of the group that missed Science or Social Science exam, we can proceed by carefully scrutinizing the rest of the group that includes Bithi, Esha and Foni.
We notice that Bithi has a similar score in both Science and Social Science examination. Assuming that she did miss these exams, let us proceed to check if this was actually the case.
For Bithi: Best 2 out 3 - 90(English), 80(Hindi)
Avg = 170/2 = 85 which matches the given value
∴  Bithi is likely to have missed her Science and Social Science examinations.
We additionally notice that Foni has a similar score in English and Social Science. On considering the best 2 out of 3 scores, the average value of the score for both the subject holds (equal to 83). Thus, we can conclude that Bithi and Foni missed their Social Science examination.
Thus, the students who missed just one exam were: Carl (Mathematics); Esha (English) and one out of Alva and Deep (Hindi).
Hence of the six students, we can correctly determine the missed subjects for four of them (except Alva and Deep):
Mathematics: Carl ; English: Esha & Foni ; Hindi: Alva & Deep; Science: Bithi & one out of Alva and Deep ; Social Science: Foni & Bithi
Hence, the correct answer to this question is Option D: Esha and Foni.

For Esha: best 3 out of 4 - 85(Hindi), 95(Mathematics), 60(Science)
Avg. = 240/3 = 80 which matches the given value
∴ Esha most likely missed her English examination.
For Foni: best 3 out of 4 - 78(Mathematics), 83(Social Science), 88(Science)
Avg. = 249/3 = 83 which matches the given value
∴ Foni most likely missed her English examination.

∴ Bithi is likely to have missed her Science and Social Science examinations.
We additionally notice that Foni has a similar score in English and Social Science. On considering the best 2 out of 3 scores, the average value of the score for both the subject holds (equal to 83). Thus, we can conclude that Bithi and Foni missed their Social Science examination.
Thus, the students who missed just one exam were: Carl (Mathematics); Esha (English) and one out of Alva and Deep (Hindi).
Hence of the six students, we can correctly determine the missed subjects for four of them (except Alva and Deep):
Mathematics: Carl ; English: Esha & Foni ; Hindi: Alva & Deep; Science: Bithi & one out of Alva and Deep ; Social Science: Foni & Bithi
Hence, the correct answer to this question is Option A: Bithi & one out of Alva and Deep.

Test: Table Charts - Question 9

Who among the following did not appear for the Mathematics examination?

Detailed Solution for Test: Table Charts - Question 9

Based on Condition II, we understand that the student who missed the Mathematics examination did not miss any other examination. This indicates that the Maths score is bound to be the average of the best 3 out of the 4 exam scores obtained by this candidate. Based on this inference, we can proceed with identifying the math score that can be represented as an average of the rest of the scores. We can straightaway eliminate Deep and Esha as potential candidates, given that their Mathematics score is greater than the rest of the exam scores.

For Alva: best 3 out of 4 - 80(English), 75(Hindi), 75(Science)

Avg. = 230/3 = 76.67 ≠ 70

For Carl: best 3 out of 4 - 80(Hindi), 90(Social Science), 100(Science)

Avg. = 270/3 = 90 which matches the given value

∴ Carl most likely missed his Mathematics examination.

For Foni: best 3 out of 4 - 83(English), 83(Social Science), 88(Science)

Avg. = 254/3 = 84.67 ≠ 78

Hence, we observe that only Carl has missed his Mathematics examination. Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

Test: Table Charts - Question 10

What BEST can be concluded about the students who did not appear for the Hindi examination?

Detailed Solution for Test: Table Charts - Question 10

Based on Condition II, we understand that the student who missed the Mathematics examination did not miss any other examination. This indicates that the Maths score is bound to be the average of the best 3 out of the 4 exam scores obtained by this candidate. Based on this inference, we can proceed with identifying the math score that can be represented as an average of the rest of the scores. We can straightaway eliminate Deep and Esha as potential candidates, given that their Mathematics score is greater than the rest of the exam scores.
After estimating the average scores for the rest of the candidates, we observe that only Carl has missed his Mathematics examination.

For Carl: best 3 out of 4 - 80(Hindi), 90(Social Science), 100(Science)

Avg. = 270/3 = 90 which matches the given value

∴ Carl missed his Mathematics examination.

Further, based on Condition III, we can surmise that the student who missed Hindi and Science should have similar average scores in these two subjects. We notice that Alva has the same score of 75 in both Hindi and Science. The same can be said about Deep, who has a score of 90 in both these subjects. Thus, one out of Alva and Deep missed out on Hindi and Science examination, while the second individual missed out only on the Hindi examination.

Since we know that Carl, Alva and Deep are unlikely to have missed out on the English exam, we can divert our attention to determining which individual out of Bithi, Esha and Foni failed to appear for this subject. However, we notice that Bithi's English score is greater than the rest of her scores, thereby helping us eliminate her as the potential candidate.

For Esha: best 3 out of 4 - 85(Hindi), 95(Mathematics), 60(Science)

Avg. = 240/3 = 80 which matches the given value

∴ Esha most likely missed her English examination.

For Foni: best 3 out of 4 - 78(Mathematics), 83(Social Science), 88(Science)

Avg. = 249/3 = 83 which matches the given value

Based on Condition I, we know that exactly two candidates missed the examinations for English, Hindi, Science, and Social Science.

For English, we determined these individuals to be Esha and Foni. For Hindi, we determined these individuals to be Alva and Deep. For Science, we know one of the individuals is either Alva or Deep. Given that Carl, Alva and Deep cannot be a part of the group that missed Science or Social Science exam, we can proceed by carefully scrutinizing the rest of the group that includes Bithi, Esha and Foni.

We notice that Bithi has a similar score in both Science and Social Science examination. Assuming that she did miss these exams, let us proceed to check if this was actually the case.

For Bithi: Best 2 out 3 - 90(English), 80(Hindi)

Avg = 170/2 = 85 which matches the given value

∴ Bithi is likely to have missed her Science and Social Science examinations.

We additionally notice that Foni has a similar score in English and Social Science. On considering the best 2 out of 3 scores, the average value of the score for both the subject holds (equal to 83). Thus, we can conclude that Bithi and Foni missed their Social Science examination.

Thus, the students who missed just one exam were: Carl (Mathematics); Esha (English) and one out of Alva and Deep (Hindi).

Hence of the six students, we can correctly determine the missed subjects for four of them (except Alva and Deep):

Mathematics: Carl ; English: Esha & Foni ; Hindi: Alva & Deep; Science: Bithi & one out of Alva and Deep ; Social Science: Foni & Bithi

Hence, the correct answer to this question is Option B: Alva and Deep.
