    D) 4
    E) 2
    View Answer
    Option D
    Solution:

    Average number of female workers in all the given companies in 2013 = 156
    Total female workers = 156 * 5 = 780
    So the female workers in Company E in 2013 = 780 – 644 = 136
    Average number of male workers in all the given companies in 2016 = 156-10 = 146
    So total male workers = 146 * 5 = 730
    The male workers in Company E in 2016 = 730 – 590 = 140
    Difference = 140 – 136 = 4
  2. If the total female workers in Company B is 830 and the average female workers in company C is 100 for the years 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, then the total number of female workers in Company B in 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 together is what percent more than the total number of female workers in Company C in the same years together?
    A) 40%
    B) 16%
    C) 25%
    D) 18%
    E) 20%
    View Answer
    Option C
    Solution:

    Average female workers in company C (2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015) = 100
    Total female workers in company C (2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015) = 100*4 = 400
    Total female workers in Company B = 830
    Total female workers in company B (2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015) = 830 – (202+128) = 500
    Required % = (500 – 400)/400 * 100 = 25%
  3. If the average of total number of workers (male and female) in companies A, B and C together in 2013 is 220 and in the year 2014, the sum of male workers of company B and female workers of company C is 100, then what is the ratio of the total number of workers (male and female) in companies A, B and C together in 2013 to the total number of workers (male and female) in the same companies together in 2014?
    A) 4:3
    B) 6:5
    C) 2:5
    D) 8:5
    E) 2:3
    View Answer
    Option B
    Solution:

    Total number of workers (male and female) in companies A, B and C together in 2013 = 660
    Total number of workers (male and female) in companies A, B and C together in 2014 = 100 + 122 + 106 + 104 +118 = 550
    Ratio = 660 : 550 = 6:5
  4. Total number of workers (male and female) in company D in the year 2011 is 280 and then decreased by 20 for every year. Total number of workers (male and female) in company E in the year 2011 is 20 and then doubled for every year. The total number of female workers in company E during all the given years together is what percent (approximately) of the total number of male workers in company D during all the given years together?
    A) 40%
    B) 56%
    C) 65%
    D) 68%
    E) 70%
    View Answer
    Option E
    Solution:

    For the year 2012, males = 260 -136 =124
    For the year 2013, males = 240 – 140 =100
    For the year 2015, males = 200 – 100 =100
    Total number of male workers = 142 + 124 + 120 + 100 + 100 + 124 = 710
    For the year 2011, females = 20 – 12 =8
    For the year 2013, females = 80 – 38 =42
    For the year 2015, females = 320 – 100 = 220
    Total number of female workers = 8 + 20 + 42 + 85 + 220 + 125 = 500
    Required % = (500/710)* 100 = 70.42%
  5. Total number of workers (male and female) in company D in the year 2011 is 280 and then decreased by 20 for every year. Total number of workers (male and female) in company E in the year 2011 is 20 and then doubled for every year. The total number of female workers in company E during all the given years together is what percent (approximately) less than the total number of male workers in company D during all the given years together?
    A) 14%
    B) 16%
    C) 25%
    D) 29%
    E) 18%
    View Answer
    Option D
    Solution:

    For the year 2012 = 260 -136 =124
    For the year 2013 = 220 – 120 =100
    For the year 2015 = 200 – 100 =100
    Total number of male workers = 142 + 124 + 120 + 100 + 100 + 124 = 710
    For the year 2011 = 20 – 12 =8
    For the year 2013 = 80 – 38 =42
    For the year 2015 = 320 – 100 = 220
    Total number of female workers = 8 + 20 + 42 + 85 + 220 + 145 = 500
    Required % = (710 – 500/710)* 100 = 29.57%

    View Answer
    Option C
    Maths marks of Geeta = 700 – (140 + 150 + 132 + 210) = 68
    Minimum pass marks = 40/100 * 150 = 60
    Difference = 8
  3. If the average marks of Ravi in English, Physics and Biology is 120 and the sum of the marks obtained by Ravi in Maths, Chemistry and Statistics is same as the marks obtained by Ramesh in English, Physics and Chemistry then the total marks scored by Ravi in all subjects together is what % of total marks obtained by Ramesh in all the subjects together?

    B) 95%
    C) 85%
    D) 75%
    E) None of these
    View Answer
    Option B
    Solution:

    Average marks of Ravi in English, Physics and Biology = 120
    Total marks of Ravi in English, Physics and Biology = 360
    Marks obtained by Ravi in Maths, Chemistry and Statistics = 400
    Total marks scored by Ravi in all subjects together = 360 + 400 = 760
    Total marks scored by Ramesh in all subjects together = 400 + 400 = 800
    Required % = 760/800 * 100 = 95%

    A) 112.3
    B) 121.7
    C) 184.5
    D) 162.4
    E) 152.4
    View Answer
    Option B
    Solution:

    Pavi’s marks in Statistics = 50% of 140 = 70
    Sita’s Marks in Statistics = 138 – 10 = 128
    Average = ( 140 + 70 + 120 + 130 + 142 + 128)/6

  2. I have seen a lot of useful items on your web site about computers. However, I’ve got the thoughts and opinions that laptop computers are still not quite powerful more than enough to be a sensible choice if you often do jobs that require plenty of power, such as video editing. But for website surfing, word processing, and most other popular computer functions they are perfectly, provided you don’t mind the screen size. Many thanks for sharing your thinking.
