Q1-5. The bar graph given below shows the percentage distribution of the total production of a car manufacturing company into various models over two years. Study the graph carefully and answer the questions that follow.
1. Total number of cars of models P, Q and T manufactured in 2013 is
a. 2,45,000
b. 2,27,500
c. 2,10,000
d. 1,92,500
EXPLANATION
Cars of each model produced by the Company during the two years:
In 2000: Total number of cars produced = 3,50,000
P = (30-0)% of 3,50,000 = 30% of 3,50,000 = 1,05,000.
Q = (45-30)% of 3,50,000 = 15% of 3,50,000 = 52,500.
R = (65-45)% of 3,50,000 = 20% of 3,50,000 = 70,000.
S=(75-65)% of 3,50,000 = 10% of 3,50,000 = 35,000.
T= (90-75)% of 3,50,000 = 15% of 3,50,000 = 52,500.
U = (100-90)% of 3,50,000 = 10% of 3,50,000 = 35,000.
In 2001: Total number of cars produced = 4,40,000.
P = (40-0)% of 4,40,000 = 40% of 4,40,000 = 1,76,000.
Q = (60-40)% of 4,40,000 = 20% of 4,40,000 = 88,000.
R = (75-60)% of 4,40,000 = 15% of 4,40,000 = 66,000.
S=(85-75)% of 4,40,000 = 10% of 4,40,000 = 44,000.
T= (95-85)% of 4,40,000 = 10% of 4,40,000 = 44,000.
U = (100-95)% of 4,40,000 = 5% of 4,40,000 = 22,000.
Total number of cars of models P, Q and T manufacture in 2000 = (105000 + 52500 + 52500)
= 2, 10,000
2. For which model the percentage rise/fall in production from 2013 to 2014 was minimum?
a. Q
b. R
c. S
d. T
EXPLANATION
3. What was the difference in the number of Q type cars produced in 2013 and that produced in 2014?
a. 35,500
b. 27,000
c. 22,500
d. 17,500
EXPLANATION
4. If the percentage production of P type cars in 2014 was the same as that in 2013, than the number of P type cars produced in 2014 would have been
a. 1,40,000
b. 1,32,000
c. 1,17,000
d. 1,05,000
EXPLANATION
5. If 85% of the S type cars produced in each year were sold by the Company, how many S type cars remained unsold?
a. 7650
b. 9350
c. 11,850
d. 12,250
