ANSWERS :

S1. Ans.(a)

Sol. Production of C type cars in 1996

= (70 – 40)% of 450000

= 30% of 450000 = 135000

Production of C type cars in 1997

= (65 – 40)% of 520000

= 25% of 520000 = 130000

∴ Required difference = 5000.

S2. Ans.(e)

Sol. Production of E type cars in 1996

= (100 – 80)% of 450000

= 20% of 450000 = 90000

And in 1997 = 10% of 520000 = 52000

∴ Total production = 90000 + 52000 = 142000.

∴ Required number of cars = 15% of 142000 = 21300

S3. Ans.(b)

Sol. Production of A type cars in 1997 = production of A type cars is 1996 (given) 

= (100 – 85)% of 450000 = 67500

∴ Required percentage = 67500/520000× 100 ≈ 13. 

S4. Ans.(c)

Sol. Clearly, by visual inspection D is the desired option.

S5. Ans.(c)

Sol. Percentage production of B type cars in 1997 = that in 1996 (given)

= (40 – 15) 25% of 520000 = 130000.

S6. Ans.(b)

Sol. Required number of students passed in third division 

= 170 – 95 = 75

S7. Ans.(c)

Sol. Percentage of students failed in 1984

= 30/200× 100 = 15 %
