Data Interpretation Ques 21

Question-

Directions : The following table shows the details about the percentage distribution of students admitted in four different colleges for five different subjects. The table also consists of respective male and female ratio of all the students in each subject. Consider the following table and answer the questions given below :

Students $\rightarrow$	Physics	Chemistry	Commerce	History	Maths
Colleges $\downarrow$
$A$	$20 \%$	$15 \%$	$25 \%$	$20 \%$	$20 \%$
$B$	$15 \%$	$15 \%$	$15 \%$	$30 \%$	$25 \%$
$C$	$30 \%$	$20 \%$	$10 \%$	$20 \%$	$20 \%$
$D$	$25 \%$	$25 \%$	$10 \%$	$30 \%$	$10 \%$
Ratio between male and female	$2: 3$	$3: 2$	$1: 2$	$2: 1$	$1: 1$

Total students distribution among four colleges $A$, $B$, $C$ and $D$ is $2: 3: 3: 2$

If the number of students admitted in History subject in college $A$ is 300 , what is the total number of female students in Chemistry in college B?

(1) 145

(2) 160

(3) 140

(4) 150

(5) 135

Show Answer

Answer: (5)

Solution: (5)

Number of students in History in college $A=300$

$\because 20 \% = 300$

$\Rightarrow 100 \% = \frac{300}{20} \times 100=1500$

$\therefore$ Number of students in college $B=\frac{1500}{2} \times 3=2250$

$\therefore$ Number of female students in Chemistry $=2250 \times \frac{15}{100} \times \frac{2}{5}=135$
