The table below represents the number of software projects on different domains that were done in different companies in 2006.
There were no other projects done by these companies, except those given above.
If each company got 10% more total projects in the next year, i.e. 2007, as compared to 2006, then how many companies would get more than 50 projects in 2007?
Explanation
Bamsi got 48 projects in 2006.
So, in 2007 = 48 + 10% of 48 = 52.8
Wipro got 56 projects in 2006.
So, in 2007 = 56 + 10% of 56 = 61.6
Infosys got 63 projects in 2006.
So, in 2007 = 63 + 10% of 63= 69.3
Perot got 49 projects in 2006.
So, in 2007 = 49 + 10% of 49 = 53.9
T.C.S. got 46 projects in 2006.
So, in 2007 = 46 + 10% of 46 = 50.6

Below are given percentages of marks in different subjects for different persons.
What are the overall marks of A in all of the examinations?
Explanation
Percentage of marks = [marks obtained/total marks] x 100
Marks obtained = percentage of marks x total marks/100
Marks obtained by A in Power Electronics = 67 x 100/100 = 67
Marks obtained by A in Machines = 84 x 125/100 = 105
Marks obtained by A in Network Theory = 80 x 150/100 = 120
Marks obtained by A in IT = 54 x 75/100 = 40.5
Marks obtained by A in mechanics = 90 x 50/100 = 45
So, overall marks of A = 67 + 105 + 120 + 40.5 + 45 = 377.5

The number of participants who participated and got selected in a TV reality show screening, conducted in 5 different cities of Pakistan over the years is given below in the table:
Participants Participated (PAR) and Selected (SEL) Each Year
If the total number of participants from all the cities in 2013 increased by approximately 25% from that in 2012, and the total number of selected participants decreased by approximately 5% from that in 2012, then what would be the approximate percentage change in the number of participants not selected in 2013 with respect to 2012?
Explanation
From the above table, we have
Total number of participants in 2012 = 78 + 80 + 76 + 66 + 68 = 368
Therefore, total number of participants in 2013 = 368 x (125/100) = 460
Also, we have
Total number of selected participants in 2012 = 54 + 76 + 68 + 62 + 56 = 316
Therefore, total number of selected participants in 2013 = 316 x (95/100) = 300.2 ≈ 300
Therefore, total number of participants not selected in 2012 = 368 - 316 = 52
Total number of participants not selected in 2013 = 460 - 300 = 160
Therefore, required percentage = x 100 = x 100 = 207.69 ≈ 208%

The percentage of participants selected from Multan was highest in which of the given years?
Explanation
From the above table, calculate the percentage of selected participants from Multan.
In the year 2006 = (54/64)× 100 = 84.38%
In the year 2007 = (51/56) × 100 = 91.07%
In the year 2008 = (63/74) × 100 = 85.14%
In the year 2009 = (66/69) × 100 = 95.65%
In the year 2010 = (78/88) × 100 = 88.64%
In the year 2011 = (40/52) × 100 = 76.92%
In the year 2012 = (62/66) × 100 = 93.94%
Thus, the percentage of participants selected from Multan was highest in the year 2009. Hence, it is the required result.
