Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 1

Directions: Read the information carefully and answer the question.
Three companies L, M and N participated for campus recruitment in college Z. All the three companies selected an equal number of candidates. There were 60 candidates who were selected by L and M both. The number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M. There were 28 candidates who got placed in all the 3 companies. This number was 50% less than the number of candidates selected by both L and N. The total number of candidates selected by both L and N was 91.88% less than total number of candidates selected by all the three company.

Q. How many candidates were selected by company L?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 1

The Venn diagram for the given problem is as given in figure 1.
Firstly, there are 28 candidates placed in all the 3 companies.
So, 28 goes into the common region.
Then, 60 candidates were selected by both L and M.
So, 60 - 28 = 32 goes into the region common only to L and M.
Now, number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M.
Thus, number of candidates selected by both M and N = 2 × 60 - 68 = 120 - 68 = 52
Thus, 52 - 28 = 24 goes into the region common to both M and N.
Now, number of candidates selected by both L and N = 2 × 28 = 56
Thus, 56 - 28 = 28 goes into the region common to both L and N.
Now, let the total number of candidates selected = T
Number of candidates selected by both L and N = 56
So, 56 = T(1 - 0.9188) or T = 690
As equal number of candidates were selected by the 3 companies, the number of candidates in each company = 690/3 = 230
Thus, 230 - (32 + 28 + 28) = 230 - 88 = 142 goes into the region exclusive to L.
230 - (28 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 80 = 150 goes into the region exclusive to N.
230 - (32 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 84 = 146 goes into the region exclusive to M.
So, number of candidates selected by company L = 230
Hence, answer option (2) is correct.

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 2

Directions: Read the information carefully and answer the question.
Three companies L, M and N participated for campus recruitment in college Z. All the three companies selected an equal number of candidates. There were 60 candidates who were selected by L and M both. The number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M. There were 28 candidates who got placed in all the 3 companies. This number was 50% less than the number of candidates selected by both L and N. The total number of candidates selected by both L and N was 91.88% less than total number of candidates selected by all the three company.

Q. Find the total number of candidates who were selected only by company L or M.

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 2

The Venn diagram for the given problem is as given in figure 1.
Firstly, there are 28 candidates placed in all the 3 companies.
So, 28 goes into the common region.
Then, 60 candidates were selected by both L and M.
So, 60 - 28 = 32 goes into the region common only to L and M.
Now, number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M.
Thus, number of candidates selected by both M and N = 2 × 60 - 68 = 120 - 68 = 52
Thus, 52 - 28 = 24 goes into the region common to both M and N.
Now, number of candidates selected by both L and N = 2 × 28 = 56
Thus, 56 - 28 = 28 goes into the region common to both L and N.
Now, let the total number of candidates selected = T
Number of candidates selected by both L and N = 56
So, 56 = T(1 - 0.9188) or T = 690
As equal number of candidates were selected by the 3 companies, the number of candidates in each company = 690/3 = 230
Thus, 230 - (32 + 28 + 28) = 230 - 88 = 142 goes into the region exclusive to L.
230 - (28 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 80 = 150 goes into the region exclusive to N.
230 - (32 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 84 = 146 goes into the region exclusive to M.
From the Venn diagram, it is clear that number of candidates selected by only L or M = Number of candidates selected by L or M and not by N = 142 + 32 + 146 = 320
Hence, answer option (3) is correct.

Three companies L, M and N participated for campus recruitment in college Z. All the three companies selected an equal number of candidates. There were 60 candidates who were selected by L and M both. The number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M. There were 28 candidates who got placed in all the 3 companies. This number was 50% less than the number of candidates selected by both L and N. The total number of candidates selected by both L and N was 91.88% less than total number of candidates selected by all the three company.

Q. What is the total number of candidates who were placed in exactly two companies only?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 3

The Venn diagram for the given problem is as given in figure 1.
Firstly, there are 28 candidates placed in all the 3 companies.
So, 28 goes into the common region.
Then, 60 candidates were selected by both L and M.
So, 60 - 28 = 32 goes into the region common only to L and M.
Now, number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M.
Thus, number of candidates selected by both M and N = 2 × 60 - 68 = 120 - 68 = 52
Thus, 52 - 28 = 24 goes into the region common to both M and N.
Now, number of candidates selected by both L and N = 2 × 28 = 56
Thus, 56 - 28 = 28 goes into the region common to both L and N.
Now, let the total number of candidates selected = T
Number of candidates selected by both L and N = 56
So, 56 = T(1 - 0.9188) or T = 690
As equal number of candidates were selected by the 3 companies, the number of candidates in each company = 690/3 = 230
Thus, 230 - (32 + 28 + 28) = 230 - 88 = 142 goes into the region exclusive to L.
230 - (28 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 80 = 150 goes into the region exclusive to N.
230 - (32 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 84 = 146 goes into the region exclusive to M.
From the Venn diagram, it is clear that total number of candidates placed in exactly 2 companies only = 32 + 28 + 24 = 84
Hence, answer option (3) is correct.

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 4

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 ratio of the total marks obtained by Rita from Karan Johar, Geeta Basra and Anu Malik to the total marks obtained by Rahul from Pritam, Mika and Farah Khan?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 4

Marks obtained by Rita from Karan Johar, Geeta Basra and Anu Malik = 88% of 100 + 70% of 150 + 60% of 125 = 88 + 105 + 75 = 268
Marks obtained by Rahul from Pritam, Mika and Farah Khan = 88% of 75 + 88% of 150 + 68% of 50 = 66 + 132 + 34 = 232
Required ratio = 268 : 232 = 67 : 58

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 5

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. If the total marks given by Geeta and Pritam to Riya are one mark less than marks granted to Rahul by Geeta and Himesh, then what is the overall percentage of marks obtained by Riya?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 5

From the table we can find out that the percentage of marks obtained by Riya from Geeta and Pritam is missing.
So, assume the marks obtained by Riya from these two judges to be x + y.
Marks obtained by Rahul from Geeta and Himesh = 92% of 150 + 94% of 50 = 138 + 47 = 185
As per the statement, x + y + 1 = 185, so x + y = 184 
Total marks obtained by Riya = 82% of 100 + x + 88% 50 + 80% of 125 + 70% of 150 + 86% of 50 + y
= 82 + x + 44 + 100 + 105 + 43 + y
= 374 + x + y
= 374 + 184
= 558
Therefore, overall percentage of marks obtained by Riya = (558 x 100)/700 = 79.71%

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 6

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 percentage of the total girls in the college do the girls in the IT branch constitute?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 6

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
42% boys studying in the IT branch = 42% of 1500 = 630
The number of girls in studying IT is 10% of the boys studying in the same branch = 10% of 630 = 63
Suppose x% of the total girls in the college are studying in the IT branch.
63 = x% of 900
x = 7

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 7

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. The number of boys studying in the Mechanical branch is approximately what percentage of the total number of boys in the college?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 7

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 + 630 + 185 + 330) = 175
Suppose the number of boys studying in Mechanical is y percentage of the total number of boys in the college.
175 = y% of 1500
y = 11.66 or 11.67%

Anisha has a big collection of tops. The top with her is of one or the other of the four brands namely Being Humane, Diesel, Fashion and Levis. The colour of the tops with her is either pink or green. Out of the tops with her, Anisha has bought only a few of them whereas the rest are gifted to her by one or the other of her six friends namely Ankita, Rajkumari, Usha, Hanshika, Sunita and Soha. Anisha does not know the exact number of tops gifted to her but she knows that the number of green tops of each brand gifted to her by each of her mentioned friends is at least 3 and at most 18. Further, the number of pink tops of each brand gifted to her by each of his mentioned friends is at least 7 and at most 25.

Anisha asked her boyfriend to help her determine the number of tops gifted to her by each of her mentioned friends. In turn, her boyfriend provided her with the information listed in the table given below:

Q. Out of the green tops gifted to Anisha by Rajkumari, Hanshika and Soha, the number of green tops of brand 'Being Humane' is definitely less than the number of green tops of brand:

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 10

The following table lists down the range of the total number of green tops of each brand gifted to Anisha by her mentioned friends:

Since, the maximum possible number of green tops of brand 'Being Humane' gifted to Anisha is less than the minimum possible number of green tops of brand 'Fashion' gifted to Anisha, therefore the number of green tops of brand 'Being Humane' gifted to Anisha is definitely less than the number of green tops of brand 'Fashion' gifted to Anisha.

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 11

Directions: Answer the question on the basis of the information given below.
Anisha has a big collection of tops. The top with her is of one or the other of the four brands namely Being Humane, Diesel, Fashion and Levis.

It is given that Y > 3 × X, therefore the possible values of X are 10 and 11.

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 12

Directions: Read the following information carefully to answer the question given thereafter.
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 $11%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B9%7D$% 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 candidates from city B have cleared the exam?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 12

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, total number of candidates from city B who have cleared the exam = 1300

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 candidates from city B have cleared the exam?

Q. What percent candidates from city C were selected out of the total number of candidates selected from cities A, B, C and D?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 13

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 number of candidates selected from cities A, B, C and D = 5500
Percent of candidates selected from city C = 1600 × (100/5500) = 29.1%

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 14

Directions: Read the information carefully and answer the question.
Three companies L, M and N participated for campus recruitment in college Z. All the three companies selected an equal number of candidates. There were 60 candidates who were selected by L and M both. The number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M. There were 28 candidates who got placed in all the 3 companies. This number was 50% less than the number of candidates selected by both L and N. The total number of candidates selected by both L and N was 91.88% less than total number of candidates selected by all the three company.

Q. How many candidates were selected by only company M?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 14

The Venn diagram for the given problem is as given in figure 1.
Firstly, there are 28 candidates placed in all the 3 companies.
So, 28 goes into the common region.
Then, 60 candidates were selected by both L and M.
So, 60 - 28 = 32 goes into the region common only to L and M.
Now, number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M.
Thus, number of candidates selected by both M and N = 2 × 60 - 68 = 120 - 68 = 52
Thus, 52 - 28 = 24 goes into the region common to both M and N.
Now, number of candidates selected by both L and N = 2 × 28 = 56
Thus, 56 - 28 = 28 goes into the region common to both L and N.
Now, let the total number of candidates selected = T
Number of candidates selected by both L and N = 56
So, 56 = T(1 - 0.9188) or T = 690
As equal number of candidates were selected by the 3 companies, the number of candidates in each company = 690/3 = 230
Thus, 230 - (32 + 28 + 28) = 230 - 88 = 142 goes into the region exclusive to L.
230 - (28 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 80 = 150 goes into the region exclusive to N.
230 - (32 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 84 = 146 goes into the region exclusive to M.
From the Venn diagram, it is obvious that number of candidates selected by only company M = 146
Hence, answer option (2) is correct.

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 15

Directions: Read the information carefully and answer the question.
Three companies L, M and N participated for campus recruitment in college Z. All the three companies selected an equal number of candidates. There were 60 candidates who were selected by L and M both. The number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M. There were 28 candidates who got placed in all the 3 companies. This number was 50% less than the number of candidates selected by both L and N. The total number of candidates selected by both L and N was 91.88% less than total number of candidates selected by all the three company.

Q. What is the total number of candidates who were placed in exactly one company only?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 15

The Venn diagram for the given problem is as given in figure 1.
Firstly, there are 28 candidates placed in all the 3 companies.
So, 28 goes into the common region.
Then, 60 candidates were selected by both L and M.
So, 60 - 28 = 32 goes into the region common only to L and M.
Now, number of candidates selected by both M and N was 68 less than twice the number of candidates selected by both L and M.
Thus, number of candidates selected by both M and N = 2 × 60 - 68 = 120 - 68 = 52
Thus, 52 - 28 = 24 goes into the region common to both M and N.
Now, number of candidates selected by both L and N = 2 × 28 = 56
Thus, 56 - 28 = 28 goes into the region common to both L and N.
Now, let the total number of candidates selected = T
Number of candidates selected by both L and N = 56
So, 56 = T(1 - 0.9188) or T = 690
As equal number of candidates were selected by the 3 companies, the number of candidates in each company = 690/3 = 230
Thus, 230 - (32 + 28 + 28) = 230 - 88 = 142 goes into the region exclusive to L.
230 - (28 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 80 = 150 goes into the region exclusive to N.
230 - (32 + 28 + 24) = 230 - 84 = 146 goes into the region exclusive to M.
From the Venn diagram, it is clear that total number of candidates placed in exactly one company = 142 + 146 + 150 = 438
Hence, answer option (1) is correct.

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 16

Directions: Read the given information carefully and answer the following questions.

A and B invested in a business in the ratio 4 : 5. A invested for 4 months more than B. At the end of year, the total profit earned is Rs. 35000 out of which B earned Rs. 15000. 

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 16

Let the amount invested by A and B be 4x and 5x respectively

Let B invested by ‘t’ months

Time of investment of A = t + 4

Profit ratio = 4x × (t + 4) : 5x × t = (4t + 16) : 5t

Now, B’s share:

5t/(4t + 16 + 5t) × 35000 = 15000

35t = 27t + 48

8t = 48

t = 6 months

Period of investment: A = 10 months, B = 6 months 

∴ Required ratio = 10 : 6 = 5 : 3

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 17

Directions: Read the following information carefully and answer the given questions:- 

In school, the total number of students is 14,000. On the annual function of the school, 25% of the total boys and 60% of total girls have participated and the number of total girls in the school is equal to the number of boys who have not participated in the function. 

Q. Find the number of boys who have participated in annual function of the school.

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 17

Given:
Total number of students = 14,000

Percentage of boys who participated in annual function = 25%

Percentage of girls who participated in annual function = 60%

Number of girls in school = Number of boys who have not participated in function

Concept used:

Total number of boys or girls = Number of those who participated + Number of those who have not participated

Calculation:

Let the number of boys and girls be x and y respectively

Number of boys who have participated in annual function = 25% of x

⇒ 0.25x

Number of boys who have not participated = (x – 0.25x)

⇒ 0.75x

Number of girls in school = y = 0.75x

Now, as per the question

⇒ x + y = 14,000

⇒ x + 0.75x = 14,000

⇒ 1.75x = 14,000

⇒ x = 8000

Number of boys who have participated in annual function = 0.25x

⇒ 0.25 × 8000

⇒ 2000

∴ The number of boys who have participated in annual function is 2000

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 18

Directions: Consider the following information and answer the questions based on it

In a group of 75 students, 12 like only cabbage, 15 like only cauliflower, 21 like only carrot, 12 like both carrot and cabbage, 13 like only capsicum and 2 like both capsicum and cauliflower. 

Q. The difference between the people who like carrot and cauliflower is

A. 6

B. 18

C. 16

D. 4

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 18

Total number of people who like carrot = 21 + 12 = 33

Total number of people who like cauliflower = 15 + 2 = 17

∴ Required difference = 33 – 17 = 16

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 19

Directions: Read the given information carefully and answer the following questions.

Three streams Arts, Science, and Commerce are offered in 3 colleges A, B, and C.  

(i) There are 1750 students in college A. The number of Commerce students in college A is 400 more than that of in Science in college A. the ratio of the number of students in college A in Arts and Science is 23 : 2.

(ii) There are 3250 students in Arts in all colleges. The number of students in Science in all colleges is 37.5% less than that of in Commerce in all colleges.

(iii) The number of Arts students in college C is 10% more than that of in college B. the ratio of the number of students in Science in college B to that of in college C is 3 : 4.

(iv) The number of students in Commerce in college B is 30% less than that in college A. total number of students in college B is 280 less than that of in college C.

Q. The total number of students in college B is what percent more/less than that of in Science in all colleges?

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 19

Let the number of students in Arts and Science in college A be 23x and 2x respectively.

⇒ Number of students in Commerce in college A = 400 + 2x

23x + 2x + 400 + 2x = 1750

27x = 1350

x = 50

College A: Arts = 1150, Science = 100, Commerce = 500

Let the number of Commerce students in all colleges be 8y

⇒ Number of Science students in all colleges = 62.5/100 × 8y = 5y

Number of students in Commerce in college B = 70/100 × 500 = 350

⇒ Number of students in Commerce in college C = 8y – (500 + 350)

⇒ 8y – 850

Let the number of students in Arts in college B be z

⇒ Number of students in Arts in college C = 110/100 × z = 1.1z

1150 + z + 1.1z = 3250

2.1z = 2100

z = 1000

Number of students in Science in college B = 3/7 × (5y – 100) = 15y/7 – 300/7

Number of students in Science in college C = 4/7 × (5y – 100) = 20y/7 – 400/7

Now, Total number of students in college B = 1000 + 350 + 15y/7 – 300/7

⇒ 1350 – 300/7 + 15y/7

Total number of students in college C = 1100 + 20y/7 – 400/7 + 8y – 850

⇒ 250 – 400/7 + 20y/7 + 8y

Now,  250 – 400/7 + 20y/7 + 8y – 280 = 1350 – 300/7 + 15y/7

⇒ 1380 + 100/7 = 61y/7

⇒ y = 160

Now, putting the value of y and z, we get

Total students in college B = 1000 + 300 + 350 = 1650

Total students in Science in all colleges = 100 + 300 + 400 = 800

∴ Required percent = (1650 – 800)/800 × 100 = 106.25%

Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 20

Directions: Read the data carefully and answer the question.

Mr. ‘A’ type Different number of Words per Day. He worked for four days. The number of words typed by him on three different days: Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday are in the ratio 3 : 4 : 2. Also number of words typed by Mr. ‘A’ on Sunday is 30% of the total words typed in four days. The no. of words typed by Mr. ‘A’ on Wednesday is 560.
Q. Find difference between total words type by Mr. ‘A’ on Sunday & Wednesday.

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Caselets - 2 - Question 20

Let total number of word type by Mr. A in four days = x

The number of words type by Mr. A in Sunday = x × 30/100 = 0.3x

The number of words type by Mr. A in Monday = (x – 0.3x) × 3/9 = 0.7x/3

The number of words type by Mr. A in Tuesday = (x – 0.3x) × 4/9 = 2.8x/9

The number of words type by Mr. A in Wednesday = (x – 0.3x) × 2/9 = 1.4x/9

Given that,

1.4x/9 = 560

⇒ x = 560 × 9/1.4 = 3600

The number of words type by Mr. A in Sunday = 0.3x = 0.3 × 3600 = 1080

The number of words type by Mr. A in Wednesday = 560 (Given)

So, required difference = 1080 – 560 = 520
