There are two types of furniture available: type A and type B. Type A costs Rs 450 per pair while type B costs Rs 375 per pair. Schools C and E opted for type A furniture while the rest ordered type B furnitureSchool A made a change in their order. The school has 14 classes (LKG + UKG + grades 1 to 12), with 3 classrooms for each class. They decided to purchase Type A furniture for grades 9 to 12, while Type B for rest of the classes. By how much percent will their expense increase now? (Round off your answer upto two decimal places.)
Previous expenditure = Rs. 630000
New expenditure = 30 x 40 x 375 + 12 x 40 x 450 = 450000 + 216000 = Rs. 666000
Percent increase in expenditure = 36000/630000 x 100 = 5.71%
Answer: 5.71 Group Question
Answer the following question based on the information given below.
The census officer provided the data regarding changes in population of three major towns - A, B and C for three years. Population of town A was 180600 in third year and it increased by 5% and 7.5% in second and third year respectively. Population of town B increased by 25% in second year which was same as 150% of population of town A in first year. After taking population control measures, town B succeeded in controlling population as growth rate in third year was half of that of previous year. The area of town C is 1250 km2 and population density for second year was 250. Growth rate for town C was 11.11% and 10% for second and third year respectively.
Note : Population density = Total population / Total area. Growth rate is change in population over previous year for all towns and for all years.
Let the Population of Town A in first year be 100.
Thus, population of town A in third year = 105% of 107.50% of 100 = 112.875
But, population of town A in third year = 180600
Population of Town A in first year = (180600 x 100) / 112.875 = 160000
Population of town A in second year = 105% of 160000 = 168000
Hence, Population of town B in second year = 150% of 160000 = 240000
As growth rate of population for town B in the second year was 25%, population of town B in first year = (240000 x 100) /125 = 192000
Also, growth rate becames half in third years of that of in second year.
••• Population of town B in third year = (240000 x 112.5) /100= 270000
For town C, population in second year = Population density x Area = 250 x 1250 = 312500
As growth rate for town C was 11.11% for second year, population of C in first year = (312500 x 100) / 111.11 » 281250
Also, growth rate for town C was 10% for third year, Population of C in third year = 110% of 312500 = 343750
Thus, we can present above data in tabular form as follows:
Required difference = Population of town B in third year - Population of town A in second year
= 270000 - 168000 =102000 Hence, option 3.
The census officer provided the data regarding changes in population of three major towns - A, B and C for three years. Population of town A was 180600 in third year and it increased by 5% and 7.5% in second and third year respectively. Population of town B increased by 25% in second year which was same as 150% of population of town A in first year. After taking population control measures, town B succeeded in controlling population as growth rate in third year was half of that of previous year. The area of town C is 1250 km2 and population density for second year was 250. Growth rate for town C was 11.11% and 10% for second and third year respectively.
Note : Population density = Total population / Total area. Growth rate is change in population over previous year for all towns and for all years.
The average population of town B for three years forms what percentage of average 3 population of town C for three years?
Considering solution to the first question,
Average population of town B = (192000 + 240000 + 270000) / 3 = 702000 / 3 = 234000
Average population of town C = (281250 + 312500 + 343750) / 3 = 937500 / 3 = 312500
Required percentages = (234000 x 100) / 312500 = 74.88 Hence, option 2.

Note : Population density = Total population / Total area. Growth rate is change in population over previous year for all towns and for all years.
For town B, male to female ratio for last two year was 7 : 5 and literate male and illiterate male are in the ratio of 4 : 1 for same years. Find the ratio between illiterate male in second year and literate male in third year.
Considering solution to the first question,
Number of male in town B for Second year = (7 x 240000) /12 = 140000
Number of male in town B for third year = (7 x 270000) / 12 = 157500
Number of illiterate male in second year = (1 x 140000) 15 = 28000
Number of literate male in third year = (4 x 157500) 15 = 126000
Thus, required ratio = 28000 : 126000 i.e. 2 : 9 Hence, option 4.
The census officer provided the data regarding changes in population of three major towns - A, B and C for three years. Population of town A was 180600 in third year and it increased by 5% and 7.5% in second and third year respectively. Population of town B increased by 25% in second year which was same as 150% of population of town A in first year. After taking population control measures, town B succeeded in controlling population as growth rate in third year was half of that of previous year. The area of town C is 1250 km2 and population density for second year was 250. Growth rate for town C was 11.11% and 10% for second and third year respectively.
Note : Population density = Total population / Total area. Growth rate is change in population over previous year for all towns and for all years.
In the third year, if 3/8th part of population of town A is not above 20 years, 33% of population of town B is of the age 20 years or less and 70% of population of town C is above 20 years, how much population of three towns is above 20 years in the third year?
Considering solution to the first question, population above 20 years for
Town A = 180600 - [(180600 x 3)/8] = 112875
Town B = (100 - 33)% of 270000 = 180900
Town C = 70% of 343750 = 240625
Thus, required total = 112875 + 180900 + 240625 = 534400
Hence, option 3.
Group Question
Answer the following question based on the information given below
The graph given above pertains to the recruitment and promotion details of a company called TFC. Every year, the company takes in new recruits, known popularly as “Nanos”, in the company for its off-shore projects. These Nanos remain Nanos for two years during which they undergo a rigorous training. Immediately after completion of two years of training, these Nanos appear for a screening test, following which they get promoted as Vets if they pass the test. For the number of Nanos that are recruited in a particular year, the number of Nanos getting converted into Vets is between 60% to 80% (only integral values of percentage), both values included. On conversion to Vets, these employees leave TFC operations in the country for on-shore projects. The Nanos who fail to get promoted as Vets continue as Nanos for one more year following which they are labeled as Vets without any test and are then transferred to its on-shore operations.
In the above chart, the innermost circle represents the year of intake of the Nanos, while the outer circles represent the numbers of Nanos and Vets for that year. Further for any given year, the number of Nanos always exceeds the number of Vets in the same year.
For example, in the year 2005, the number of Nanos that TFC had was 65 and the number of Vets in the same year was 42.
No employee can bypass the process and get recruited as a Vet directly.
The number of Nanos from the 2006 batch who were promoted as Vets without a test 3 was....
The data that we have can be tabulated as follows:
Now, since the number of Nanos that get promoted as Vets in a year is between 60% - 80%, both included, the number of Vets so produced for each year can be represented as follows:
Now if we compare the number of Vets in year 2005, it becomes evident that the number of Nanos getting promoted as Vets cannot be 44 since there were only 42 Vets in 2005.
Hence the number of Nanos from 2003 that were promoted as Vets in 2005 was 33. This is because no other percentage will give an integral number of Nanos.
Thus, the remaining Nanos, i.e. (55 - 33) = 22 were promoted as Vets in next year, i.e. in year 2006.
Now, since in year 2006, there were a total of 70 Vets of which 22 were from the 2003 batch, the number of Nanos from 2004 who got promoted as Vets in 2006 would be (70 - 22) = 48, which is within the required range of (45 to 60) for the year 2004.
Therefore, the remaining 27 Nanos (75 - 48) will get promoted as Vets in the next year i.e. in 2007.
Now, in 2007, the number of Vets is 79, of which 27 have been promoted from the 2004 batch.
Hence, the number of Nanos from the 2005 batch who were promoted as Vets in 2007 would be (79 - 27) = 52.
Using the logic explained earlier, the remaining 65 - 52 = 13 Nanos will be promoted in 2008.
The number of Vets in 2008 is 77, of which the number 13 are Nanos promoted from the 2005 batch.
Therefore, the remaining 77 - 13 = 64 Nanos are promoted from the 2006 batch.
There are 100 Nanos in the 2006 batch.
Therefore, the remaining 100 - 64 = 36 Nanos are promoted as Vets without a test in 2009. Hence, option 3.

No employee can bypass the process and get recruited as a Vet directly.
The percentage of Nanos getting promoted as Vets in the first instance was highest for which of the following batches of Nanos?
Consider the solution to the previous question. A Nano gets promoted as a Vet if the Nano is promoted at the end of the two year period.
The percentage of Nanos in each batch that are promoted as Vets can be calculated as shown below:
2003: 33 out of 5 i.e. 60%
2004: 48 out of 70 i.e. 68.55%
2005: 52 out of 65 i.e. 80%
2006: 64 out of 100 i.e. 64%
Hence, option 3.

If we consider the period from 2007 - 2009, then in which of the following years was the number of Vets the highest?
Number of Vets in 2007 : 79 Number of Vets in 2008 : 77 Hence, option 3 can be eliminated.
The number of Nanos from the 2006 batch who got promoted as Vets in 2009 is 36.
Further as there were 80 Nanos who were recruited in 2007, atleast 60% of them, i.e. 48 of them will be promoted as Vets in 2009
Thus, the minimum number of Nanos in 2009 will be 36 + 48 i.e. 84.
Thus, the maximum number of Vets was in 2009.
Hence, option 2.

Answer the following question based on the information given below.
Badrinath College of Engineering (BCE) was established on 1st May 1993 on the 60th birth anniversary of Mr. Prakash Badrinath with 4, 5, 3 and 2 professors in Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and Information Technology department respectively. On 1st of June 1993 one more professor joined. On every 1st June of the subsequent years up to 1996 one professor is recruited for one of the departments with the salary of Rs. 15,000 per month. So, at the end of 4 years, 4 new professors were recruited across 4 departments. Professors who joined in May 1993 were placed in different pay scales based on their experience and qualifications, with the minimum of Rs. 15,000 per month and difference between any two pay scales is in multiples of Rs. 5,000. Each department has only one head of the department and he is paid more than the others. After completion of one year of service, each professor is given an annual increment of Rs. 3,000 effective from 1st June every year. During the period from 1st May 1993 to 31st May 1996 only one professor resigned across the four departments.
The table given below shows the annual average monthly salary of the professors of BCE for each department as on 1st June every year.
When did a new professor join the civil department?
Every professor gets an increment of Rs. 3000 on 1st June on completion of one year, so the average salary should also increase by 3000 after a year.
There is no change in average salary from May-93 and Jun-93 in Civil, Electrical and Information Technology (IT) departments. So, the new professor with salary Rs. 15,000, must have joined Mechanical department.
Also, the increase in the salary is not 3000 for Civil department in Jun-94. So, a new professor must have joined Civil department on 1st June 1994. On the similar lines, we can conclude that a new professor with Rs. 15000 in departments Electrical and IT on 1st June 1995 and 1st June 1996 respectively. Average salary of Mechanical department was not changed by 3000 in Jun-96. So, the professort who has resigned, must have resigned from Mechanical department.
Hence, option 4.

Electrical department has a tradition that none of the professor gets the same salary. Professor Kulkami and Professor Rathwa are in the electrical department of the college from its inception and none from them is the head of the department. What is the salary of the third professor who joined along with Prof. Kulkami and Prof. Rathwa, for the month of June 1996?
Total salary of 3 professors of Electrical department in 1993 = 3 x 20000 = 60000 The possible salary of all the three professors is 15000, 20000 and 25000.
The third professor must be the head of the department and must be recruited at the starting salary of Rs. 25,000 in May 1993.
Therefore, salary of the third professor of Electrical department in June 1996 = 25000 + 3000 + 3000 + 3000 = Rs. 34,000.
Hence, option 1.

Answer the following question based on the information given below.
In a T20 match between New Zealand and Australia, the top 4 batsmen were Guptill, Anderson from New Zealand and Maxwell and Warner from Australia. Following information regarding them is given below:
What percentage of the balls faced by the four batsmen were dot balls? (Round off your
answer upto two decimal places.)
From the given data the table can be filled up as shown below,
We are given that 15 sixes were hit by these players.
Hence 5m + 5n = 15 or m + n = 3 m and n can take values 1 or 2.
Warner played 23 dot balls, hence he scored 46 runs in 10 balls. Thus, there are two possible cases:
Case 1: Warner hits 3 sixes.
The equation turns down to remaining 28 from 7 balls, only possibility being 7 fours. But all batsmen took at least one single. Hence, this case is invalid.
Thus, Warner hits 6 sixes.
••• From the remaining 4 balls, he hits 2 fours and takes 2 singles.
So we get the values of m, n, a andy as 1, 2, 2 and 2 respectively.
Now, Maxwell has 50 runs off 30 balls. Hence, he scored six singles i.e. d = 4.
From (9), we can see that x = 4
Thus the complete table is as follows,
Total balls faced = 37+ 31+30+ 33 = 131 Dot balls = 14 + 14 + 15 + 23 = 66 ••• Percentage of dot balls = 66/131 x 100 = 50.38%
Answer: 50.38

Answer the following question based on the information given below.
A cricket coaching academy has twelve rooms distributed equally on three floors -1,2 and 3. Four of the twelve rooms are unoccupied and the remaining rooms are occupied by eight cricketers falling into three different categories - batsman, bowler or allrounder. Only one cricketer stays per room and no cricketer can fall into more than one category. There are at least two and at most three cricketers per floor as well as per category. Following instruction regarding them is given below:
Who among the following is neither a bowler nor a batsman?
Ignore the four unoccupied flats on the three floors.
Since it is known that there are three allrounders and three batsmen, there can be only two bowlers.
Similarly, since both players on the second floor are bowlers, there are only two players on the second floor and three players each on the first and third floors.
Hence, there cannot be a batsman or allrounder on the second floor. Also, among the three allrounders, two live on the third floor.
Thus, the floor and category wise break-up is:
Floor 3-3 players : 2 allrounders + 1 batsman Floor 2-2 players : 2 bowlers
Floor 1-3 players : 1 allrounder + 2 batsmen
From 3 and 4, Sanket = bowler = second floor and Shyam = batsman = third floor and Praveen = bowler = second floor
Since Rahul is an allrounder and does not stay on the first floor, Rahul is on the third floor. Hence, Rahul = allrounder = third floor
Deepak and Rakesh are on the same floor and in the same category, but are not allrounders.
Based on the floor and category wise break-up obtained above, they can only be batsmen on the first floor.
Hence, Deepak = batsman = first floor and Rakesh = batsman = first floor
Since the three batsmen have been identified, the remaining two players i.e. Vikas and Mahesh have to be allrounders.
Since Mahesh is on the same floor as Rahul, Mahesh = allrounder = third floor and Vikas = allrounder = first floor
The entire player-wise arrangement is as shown below:
Among the players mentioned, only Vikas is neither a batsmen nor a bowler.
Hence, option 4.
A cricket coaching academy has twelve rooms distributed equally on three floors -1,2 and 3.

Following instruction regarding them is given below:
Who among these are the allrounders?
Considering the solution to the first question of the set, Vikas, Mahesh and Rahul are the three allrounders.
Hence, option 3.
