Direction: These questions are based on the following graphs : Classification of appeared candidates in a competitive test from different States and qualified candidates from those States.
Appeared candidates = 45000.
Qualified candidates = 9000.
-
What is the ratio between the number of candidates qualified from States B and D together to the number of candidates appeared from State ‘C’, respectively?
-
- 8 : 37
- 11 : 12
- 37 : 40
- 7 : 37
- None of these
Correct Option: C
From above given graph , we can see that
Appeared candidates = 45000 and Qualified candidates = 9000
percent of candidates qualified from States B = 16%
percent of candidates qualified from States D = 21%
total percent of candidates qualified from States B and D = (16 + 21)% = 37%
And percent of candidates appeared from State C = 8%
| Required ratio = | total percent of candidates qualified from States B and D together out of 9000 |
| percent of candidates appeared from State C out of 45000 | |
| = | 37% of 9000 | |
| 8% of 45000 | ||
| = | 3330 | = 37 : 40 |
| 3600 | ||
