Try yourself:Directions: Study the given information and answer the following question.
A talent hunt competition was being conducted by a TV Channel. As they were expecting variations in the type of talent, they appointed 7 different judges: Karan Johar, Geeta Basra, Himesh Reshamia, Anu Malik, Mika, Farah Khan and Pritam. In the first round, 6 contestants namely Rahul, Reema, Ram, Rita, Raju and Riya appeared before the panel for selection. Accidentally, the organisers forgot to mention the marks for which they were to be evaluated; therefore, each of the judges evaluated the contestants on a different total marks. The total marks for which the judges evaluated all the contestant were 100, 150, 50, 125, 150, 50 and 75 in the exact order of judges as mentioned above, respectively. The table mentioned below presents the percentage score of the contestants by each of the judges.
Q. What is the approximate average percentage of marks given by Karan Johar?
Explanation
Total marks of Reema = 583
x% × 100 + 88% × 150 + 74% × 50 + 64% × 125 + 92% × 150 + 94% × 50 + 84% × 75 = 583
So, x + (88 + 44) + 37 + (64 + 16) + (92 + 46) + 47 + 63 = 583
So, x + 497 = 583
So, x = 583 - 497 = 86%
Now, average percentage of marks given by Karan Johar = (92 + 86 + 95 + 88 + 78 + 82)/6 = 521/6 = 87% (Approx)

The table mentioned below presents the percentage score of the contestants by each of the judges.
Q. If the marks given by Mika and by Anu Malik to Ram are in the ratio of 3 : 2, then the marks given by Mika to Ram are what percentage of the marks given to Raju by Mika?
Explanation
Total Marks obtained by Ram = 536
Sum of Marks Given by all Judges = 536
Ratio of marks given by Mika and Anu Malik = 3 : 2.
Let Marks given by Mika and Anu Malik be 3x and 2x, respectively.
Therefore, 95% × 100 + 70% × 150 + 86% × 50 + 3x + 2x + 96% × 50 + 60% × 75 = 536
So, 95 + 105 + 43 + 5x + 48 + 45 = 536
So, 336 + 5x = 536
So, x = 40
Therefore, marks obtained by Ram through Mika = 3 × 40 = 120
Marks given to Raju by Mika = 88% of 150 = 132
Therefore, Percentage of Ram's marks to Raju's marks as given by Mika = (120/132) × 100 = 90.9%

Try yourself:Directions: Study the given information carefully to answer the question that follows:
In a college, there are 2400 students studying in different branches - Electronics, Mechanical, Electrical, IT, and Computer Science. The ratio of the number of boys to that of girls is 5 : 3. 12% boys study in the Electronics branch. 24% girls study in the Mechanical branch. The ratio of the number of boys to that of girls in the Electronics branch is 6 : 11. One-ninth of girls study in the Computer Science branch. 42% boys study in the IT branch. The number of girls studying in the IT branch is 10% of the boys studying in the same branch. The remaining girls study in the Electrical branch. The total number of students studying in the Computer Science branch is 285. 22% boys study in the Electrical branch. The remaining boys study in the Mechanical branch.
Q. What is the number of girls studying in the IT branch?
Explanation
Total number of students = 2400
Ratio of the number of boys to that of girls = 5 : 3
Number of boys = (5/8) x 2400 = 1500
Number of girls = (3/8) x 2400 = 900
42% boys studying in IT = 42% of 1500 = 630
The number of girls studying in IT is 10% of the boys studying in the same branch = 10% of 630 = 63

The total number of students studying in the Computer Science branch is 285. 22% boys study in the Electrical branch. The remaining boys study in the Mechanical branch.
Q. What is the total number of girls studying in the Electronics and Electrical branches?
Explanation
Total number of students = 2400
Ratio of the number of boys to that of girls = 5 : 3
Number of boys = (5/8) × 2400 = 1500
Number of girls = (3/8) × 2400 = 900
12% boys studying in Electronics = 12% of 1500 = 180
24% girls studying in Mechanical = 24% of 900 = 216
Ratio of the number of boys to that of girls in Electronics = 6 : 11
Number of girls studying in Electronics = 11 × 30 = 330 [Number of boys studying in Electronics = 180]
One-ninth of girls studying in Computer Science = (1/9) × (900) = 100
42% boys studying in IT = 42% of 1500 = 630
The number of girls studying in IT is 10% of the boys studying in the same branch = 10% of 630 = 63
The remaining girls are studying in Electrical = 900 - (216 + 330 + 100 + 63) = 191
Total number of students studying in Computer Science = 285
Number of boys studying in Computer science branch = 285 - 100 = 185
22% boys studying in Electrical = 22% of (1500) = 330
Number of boys studying in Mechanical = 1500 - (180 + 100 + 630 + 185 + 330) = 75
Total number of girls studying in Electronics and Electrical = 330 + 191 = 521

5500 candidates from four different cities A, B, C and D have cleared the bank exam. 500 male candidates from city A have cleared the exam. The number of male candidates who cleared the exam from city C is % less than that of male candidates who cleared the exam from city D. The total number of candidates who cleared the exam from city A is 250 less than the total number of candidates who cleared the exam from city B. The ratio of number of female students from city C who have cleared the exam to the total number of students from city D who have cleared the exam is 16 : 31. The total number of candidates who have cleared the exam from city D is 100 less than 3 times the number of female candidates from city A who have cleared the exam. 650 female candidates from city D have cleared the exam. The number of female candidates from cities A, B, C and D who have cleared the exam is 100 less than number of male candidates from cities A, B, C and D who have cleared the exam. The number of male candidates who cleared the exam from city B is 20% more than number of male candidates who cleared the exam from city A.
Q. How many male candidates from city C have cleared the exam?
Explanation
Let number of male candidates from city C who have cleared the exam = 8x
Let number of female candidates from city C who have cleared the exam = 16z
Let total number of candidates from city A who have cleared the exam = y
Total number of candidates from city B who have cleared the exam = y + 250
Number of candidates from city D who have cleared the exam = 31z
The following table can be drawn as per the given information:
The total number of female candidates from all 4 cities who have cleared the exam is 100 less than the number of male candidates from all cities who have cleared the exam.
Let total number of female candidates from all 4 cities who have cleared the exam = a
Total number of male candidates from all 4 cities who have cleared the exam = a + 100
So,
a + a + 100 = 5500
a = 2700
a + 100 = 2800
Also,
500 + 600 + 8x + 9x = 2800
17x = 1700
x = 100
9x + 650 = 31z
Since x = 100,
z = 50
y = 1050
So, the table can be redrawn as follows:
Hence, number of male candidates from city C who have cleared the exam = 800

Q. Out of the total candidates selected from city A, what percent were females?
Explanation
Let number of male candidates from city C who have cleared the exam = 8x
Let number of female candidates from city C who have cleared the exam = 16z
Let total number of candidates from city A who have cleared the exam = y
Total number of candidates from city B who have cleared the exam = y + 250
Number of candidates from city D who have cleared the exam = 31z
The following table can be drawn as per the given information:
The total number of female candidates from all 4 cities who have cleared the exam is 100 less than the number of male candidates from all cities who have cleared the exam.
Let total number of female candidates from all 4 cities who have cleared the exam = a
Total number of male candidates from all 4 cities who have cleared the exam = a + 100
So,
a + a + 100 = 5500
a = 2700
a + 100 = 2800
Also,
500 + 600 + 8x + 9x = 2800
17x = 1700
x = 100
9x + 650 = 31z
Since x = 100,
z = 50
y = 1050
So, the table can be redrawn as follows:
Total candidates selected from city A = 1050
Required percent of females = 550 × (100/1050) = 52.38%
