Question 1

1 / -0

Use the following information to answer the next question.

In the Municipal Council election of a district, three candidates Amar, Manoj, and Prem were contesting. The percentage of the total number of votes received by Amar and Manoj were 56% and 24% respectively.

If 84000 voters cast their votes, then what are the respective number of votes received by Amar, Manoj, and Prem?

50000, 20000 and 14000

47040, 20160 and 16800

55000, 19000 and 10000

52050, 19120 and 12830

Solution

Total number of votes casted = 84000

Percentage of votes received by Amar = 56%

Number of votes received by Amar = 56% of 84000 = 47040

Percentage of votes received by Manoj = 24%

Number of votes received by Manoj = 24% of 84000 = 20160

Percentage of votes received by Prem = 100% − (56 + 24) % = 20%

Number of votes received by Prem = 20% of 84000 = 16800

Thus, the number of votes received by Amar, Manoj, and Prem are 47040, 20160, and 16800 respectively.

The correct answer is B.

Question 2
1 / -0

In a company, 40% of the employees are female. What is the ratio of the number of female employees to the number of male employees?

A
2 : 3

B
2 : 5

C
1 : 3

D
1 : 5

Solution

Percentage of female employees = 40%

⇒ Percentage of male employees = 100% − 40% = 60%

Thus, the ratio of the number of female employees to the number of male employees is (40 : 60) = 2 : 3.

Hence, the correct answer is option A.
