Daily Passage Test for CLAT - Apr 1 - Question 1

Directions: Study the following information and answer the given question.

In a commercial complex of five storeys, five different offices are there viz. HCL, IBM, Infosys, Nugent and Accenture on the floors I, II, III, IV and V, respectively. There are total 6000 employees working in the building. Each employee is employed in only one of the companies. Out of the total employees in the building, 18% are working in IBM and 37% are working in HCL. The ratio of the employees working in Accenture to that working in Infosys is 17 : 19. Only 9% of the total employees are working in Nugent. The ratio of male employees to that of female employees working in Nugent is 7 : 2 and that in Infosys is 17 : 21. The number of male employees working in Accenture is five times the number of female employees. The number of male employees working in HCL is 480 less than the number of male employees working in Accenture. Out of its total employees, IBM has employed approximately 44.45% females.

Q. Out of the total employees working in the building, what is the approximate percentage of male employees employed in Accenture?

Detailed Solution: Question 1

Total number of employees in the building = 6000
Total number of employees working in HCL = 6000 × 0.37 = 2220
Percentage of employees working in Accenture and Infosys
= 100% - 18% - 37% - 9% = 36%
The ratio of employees working in Accenture to those working in Infosys = 17 : 19

Therefore, percentage of employees working in Accenture =  = 17%
Number of employees working in Accenture = 6000 × 17/100 = 1020
Let the number of female employees in Accenture be x.
Therefore, number of male employees in Accenture = 5x
Therefore,
x + 5x = 1020
6x = 1020
x = 1020/6
= 170
Therefore, percentage of male employees working in Accenture out of total employees in the building = 

= 14.1666 ≈ 14.17%
Hence, this is the required solution.

Daily Passage Test for CLAT - Apr 1 - Question 2

Directions: Study the following information and answer the given question.

In a commercial complex of five storeys, five different offices are there viz. HCL, IBM, Infosys, Nugent and Accenture on the floors I, II, III, IV and V, respectively. There are total 6000 employees working in the building. Each employee is employed in only one of the companies. Out of the total employees in the building, 18% are working in IBM and 37% are working in HCL. The ratio of the employees working in Accenture to that working in Infosys is 17 : 19. Only 9% of the total employees are working in Nugent. The ratio of male employees to that of female employees working in Nugent is 7 : 2 and that in Infosys is 17 : 21. The number of male employees working in Accenture is five times the number of female employees. The number of male employees working in HCL is 480 less than the number of male employees working in Accenture. Out of its total employees, IBM has employed approximately 44.45% females.

Q. Suppose, 50% of the female employees who were working in IBM switched to HCL and 20% of the female employees who were working in HCL switched to IBM in the same building, then what will be the new ratio of the female employees who are working in HCL to the female employees who are working in IBM?

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Total number of employees in the building = 6000
Total number of employees working in HCL = 6000 × 0.37 = 2220
Percentage of employees working in Accenture and Infosys
= 100% - 18% - 37% - 9% = 36%
The ratio of employees working in Accenture to those working in Infosys = 17 : 19

Therefore, percentage of employees working in Accenture =  = 17%
Number of employees working in Accenture = 6000 × 17/100 = 1020
Let the number of female employees in Accenture be x.
Therefore, number of male employees in Accenture = 5x
Therefore,
x + 5x = 1020
6x = 1020
x = 1020/6
= 170Therefore, number of male employees in Accenture = 5 × 170 = 850
Therefore, number of male employees in HCL = 850 - 480 = 370
Number of female employees in HCL = 6000 × 0.37 - 370 = 1850
Total number of employees who were working in IBM initially = 6000 × 0.18 = 1080
Since there are approximately 44.5% female employees in IBM, therefore, total number of female employees who were working in IBM initially = 1080 × 0.4445 ≈ 480
Number of female employees who switched to HCL from IBM = 480 × 0.50 = 240
Number of female employees who switched to IBM from HCL = 1850 × 0.20 = 370
Number of female employees in HCL after switching the job = 1850 - 370 + 240 = 1720
Number of female employees in IBM after switching job = 480 - 240 + 370 = 610
Therefore, required ratio = 1720/610 = 172 : 61
Hence, this is the required solution.

Daily Passage Test for CLAT - Apr 1 - Question 3

Directions: Study the following information and answer the given question.

In a commercial complex of five storeys, five different offices are there viz. HCL, IBM, Infosys, Nugent and Accenture on the floors I, II, III, IV and V, respectively. There are total 6000 employees working in the building. Each employee is employed in only one of the companies. Out of the total employees in the building, 18% are working in IBM and 37% are working in HCL. The ratio of the employees working in Accenture to that working in Infosys is 17 : 19. Only 9% of the total employees are working in Nugent. The ratio of male employees to that of female employees working in Nugent is 7 : 2 and that in Infosys is 17 : 21. The number of male employees working in Accenture is five times the number of female employees. The number of male employees working in HCL is 480 less than the number of male employees working in Accenture. Out of its total employees, IBM has employed approximately 44.45% females.

Q. After some time, 18% of the total employees from the building leave their jobs and join somewhere out of the building, out of which, the ratio of male to female employees is 5 : 4. Out of this, 35% male employees from HCL and 120 female employees from Accenture leave their jobs. Remaining employees, who leave the job, are from IBM only. What will be the ratio of the male employees to the female employees in IBM who have left their job?

Detailed Solution: Question 3

Total number of employees in the building = 6000
Number of employees who leave their jobs = 6000 × 18/100 = 1080

Number of male employees who leave their jobs = 1080/9 × 5 = 600

Number of female employees who leave their jobs = 1080 - 600 = 480
Number of female employees from Accenture who leave their jobs = 120
Therefore, number of female employees from IBM who leave their jobs = 480 - 120 = 360

Total number of male employees from HCL who leave their jobs = 600 × 35/100 = 210

Number of male employees from IBM who leave their jobs = 600 - 210 = 390
Therefore, required ratio = 390/360 = 13 : 12

Daily Passage Test for CLAT - Apr 1 - Question 4

Directions: Study the following information and answer the given question.

In a commercial complex of five storeys, five different offices are there viz. HCL, IBM, Infosys, Nugent and Accenture on the floors I, II, III, IV and V, respectively. There are total 6000 employees working in the building. Each employee is employed in only one of the companies. Out of the total employees in the building, 18% are working in IBM and 37% are working in HCL. The ratio of the employees working in Accenture to that working in Infosys is 17 : 19. Only 9% of the total employees are working in Nugent. The ratio of male employees to that of female employees working in Nugent is 7 : 2 and that in Infosys is 17 : 21. The number of male employees working in Accenture is five times the number of female employees. The number of male employees working in HCL is 480 less than the number of male employees working in Accenture. Out of its total employees, IBM has employed approximately 44.45% females.

Q. Out of the total employees working in the building, what is the ratio of approximate percentage of female employees working in HCL to the percentage of female employees working in Nugent?

Detailed Solution: Question 4

Total number of employees in the building = 6000
Total number of employees working in HCL = 6000 × 0.37 = 2220
Percentage of employees working in Accenture and Infosys
= 100% - 18% - 37% - 9% = 36%
The ratio of employees working in Accenture to the employees working in Infosys = 17 : 19

Therefore, percentage of employees working in Accenture =  = 17%
Number of employees working in Accenture = 6000 ×  = 1020
Let the number of female employees in Accenture be x.
Therefore, number of male employees in Accenture = 5x
Therefore,
x + 5x = 1020
6x = 1020
x = 1020/6
= 170
Therefore, number of male employees in Accenture = 5 × 170 = 850
Therefore, number of male employees in HCL = 850 - 480 = 370
Number of female employees in HCL = 6000 × 0.37 - 370 = 1850
Percentage of female employees in HCL to the total number of people working in the building =  = 30.833 ≈ 31% (approx)
Total number of employees working in Nugent =  = 540

Ratio of male to female in Nugent = 7 : 2
Number of female employees in Nugent = 540/9 x 2 = 120
Percentage of female employees in Nugent to the total number of people working in the building =  = 2%
Therefore, required ratio = 31 : 2
Hence, this is the required solution.

Daily Passage Test for CLAT - Apr 1 - Question 5

Directions: Study the following information and answer the given question.

In a commercial complex of five storeys, five different offices are there viz. HCL, IBM, Infosys, Nugent and Accenture on the floors I, II, III, IV and V, respectively. There are total 6000 employees working in the building. Each employee is employed in only one of the companies. Out of the total employees in the building, 18% are working in IBM and 37% are working in HCL. The ratio of the employees working in Accenture to that working in Infosys is 17 : 19. Only 9% of the total employees are working in Nugent. The ratio of male employees to that of female employees working in Nugent is 7 : 2 and that in Infosys is 17 : 21. The number of male employees working in Accenture is five times the number of female employees. The number of male employees working in HCL is 480 less than the number of male employees working in Accenture. Out of its total employees, IBM has employed approximately 44.45% females.

Q. If after some time, 30% of the employees of Infosys in the building have switched their job to Nugent in the same building, out of which approximately 30% were male employees, then what will be the new ratio of the male employees to the female employees in Nugent after switching jobs?

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Total number of employees in the building = 6000
Total number of employees working in HCL = 6000 × 0.37 = 2220
Percentage of employees working in Accenture and Infosys
= 100% - 18% - 37% - 9% = 36%
The ratio of employees working in Accenture to the employees working in Infosys = 17 : 19

Therefore, percentage of employees working in Accenture =  = 17%
Number of employees working in Accenture = 6000 × 17/100 = 1020

Percentage of employees working in Infosys = 36% - 17% = 19%

Number of employees in Infosys = 6000 × 9/100 = 1140
Number of employees who switched to Nugent = 1140 × 30/100 = 342
Number of male employees out of total who switched their job = 342 × 30/100 = 102.6 ≈ 103

Therefore, number of female employees who switched to Nugent = 342 - 103 = 239
Number of employees in Nugent before switching the job = 6000 × (9/100) = 540
Number of male employees in Nugent before switching job = (540 × 7)/9 = 420
Number of female employees in Nugent before switching job = 540 - 420 = 120
Therefore, number of male employees in Nugent after switching job = 420 + 103 = 523
Number of female employees in Nugent after switching job = 120 + 239 = 359
Therefore, required ratio = 523 : 359
Hence, this is the required solution.
