Question 3) Find the ratio of Lenovo laptop sold by 'R' to Lenovo laptop sold by 'T '?

Question 4) Sony laptop sold by S and T together is how much less than Sony laptop
sold by Q and R together?

Explanation:

Sony laptop sold by S and T together

= 1500 + 800 = 2300

Sony laptop sold by Q and R together

= 1200 + 2000 = 3200

Required difference = 3200 - 2300 = 900

Question on Bar Graphs
Q2: Study the following bar graph and answer the questions that
follow: Total monthly income = Rs.
50,000

a) What amount is spent on food?

b) How much more money is spent on clothing and housing together
than on transportation?
c) What percent of amount on food is spent as amount on
education?
Solution :
a) Food = 20 % of expenditure => Amount spent on food = 20% of 50,000 = Rs.
10,000
b) Money spent on clothing and housing together = 25 % of Rs. 50,000 = Rs.
12,500 Money spent on transportation = 20 % of Rs. 50,000 = Rs. 10,000
Therefore, more money spent on clothing and housing together than on
transportation = Rs. 12,500-10,000 = Rs. 2,500
c) Expenditure on food = 20 % Expenditure on education = 5 % Therefore,
percent of amount on food spent as amount on education = (5 / 20) x 100 = 25
%
Question 2) Average per gram price of Oxygen on all four days together is how much
more than the average per gram price of Carbon on all four days together?

Explanation:

Average per gram price of Oxygen on all the four days

= 2475

Average per gram price of Carbon on all the four days

= 2325

So, the required difference = 2475 - 2325 = 150

= 70000 - 28000 = 42000

Question 2) Find the ratio between the number of cosmetic items produced in 2014
and the number of food products produced in 2010.

Explanation:

Let's suppose the total production of the company to be K

So, the required ratio =

Question 3) The difference between food items and drink items produced by the
company in 2011 is 20000. Find the average of food and cosmetic items produced by
the company in 2010?

Explanation:

Let's suppose total production of the company be K

According to question,

20% of k = 20000

K = 100000

So, the required average =

= 20000 + 50000 / 2

= 70000/2

= 35000
Question 4) Find the total production in 2015 if there is an increase of 20% in total
production in 2018 compared to the previous year given that the number of drink items
produced in 2012 was 16000?

Explanation:

Let's suppose the production of each previous years be K

According to the question,

40% of k = 16000

K = 40000

So, the total production in 2015

= 48000
Question on Pie Charts
Q3: Study the pie chart below and answer the questions that follow :

The above pie chart shows the sales of four different types of
articles in a shop.
a) What is the central angle of type A ?
b) If the total sale is 1200, what is the sale of B ?
c) What is the difference between the central angle of C and D ?
Solution :

degrees
b) Sales of B = 20 % of 1200 = 240
c) Difference between the central angle of C and D = 40 % of 360 5 % of 360
= 35 % of 360 = 126 degrees

the percentage distribution in these months. Read the data carefully and answer the
given questions.

Question 1) Income of john in March and July together is what percent less than the
income of john in August and December together?

Explanation:

Given,

Income of john in the month of March and July together = 12% + 22% = 34%

Income of john in the month of August and December together = 18% + 18% = 36 %
Question 2) Income of John in July and December together is how much more than the
income of john in January and March together?
