Read the following information carefully and answer the questions based on it. The given bar graph shows the percentage of the Laptops, Desktops

Direction: Read the following information carefully and answer the questions based on it. The given bar graph shows the percentage of the Laptops, Desktops and Macs sold by company A, B and C out of the products manufactured by the companies.

Tabulate the Data for further Convenience,

1) The difference between the number of Macs manufactured by company A and B is same as that of the company B and C. If the number of Macs sold by company B and C is same, then find the number of Macs manufactured by the company A is what percentage of the company

B. (A manufactured highest number of Macs and C manufactured the lowest number of Macs)

A.            69.23%

B.            133.33%

C.            144.44%

D.            125%

E.            None of these

Sol:

According to the Question,

A – B = B – C

A + C = 2B ——- (1)

Also, 50% of B = 90% of C

B/C = 9x/5x——— (2)

From (1) and (2),

A + 5x = 2*9x

A = 13x

The required % = 13x/9x * 100 = 144.44%

Hence, the answer is option C

2) If the number of Macs manufactured by the company A and B is 40% more than the number of Laptops manufactured by each company A and B. The average number of Macs sold by company A and B together is K more than the average number of laptops sold by company A and B together. Then find the number of Laptops unsold by company B. Where, K = 800

+ 11.5% of the number of laptops manufactured by company A.

A.            1200

B.            4000

C.            3500

D.            2800

E.            Can’t be determined

Sol:

According to the question,

Let, the number of Laptops manufactured by the company A and B is 100a and 100b respectively.

The number of Macs manufactured by company A and B is 140a and 140b respectively.

Now according to the question,

(45% x 140a + 50% of 140b)/2 – (40% x 100a +

30% x 100b)/2 = 800 + 11.5% of 100a

63a + 70b – 40a – 30b = 1600 + 23a

23a + 40b = 1600 + 23a

40b = 1600

So, the value of b = 40

Number of laptops manufactured by company B

= 100b

Number of laptops sold by company B = 30b

Number of laptops unsold by company B= 100b

– 30b = 70b

= 70 x 40 = 2800

Hence, the answer is option D

3) If the sum of the desktops sold by company A and B is 2586 and the sum of the desktops sold by company A and C is 3930. If the number of desktops sold by company C is 87.5% more than that of company B, then find the number of laptops manufactured by company C?

A.            4200

B.            2560

C.            1536

D.            1050

E.            None of these

Sol:

According to the question,

Sum of the Desktops sold by company (A + B) =

2586 —– (1)

Sum of the Desktops sold by company (A + C) =

3930 —– (2)

From (1) and (2),

Desktops sold by company C – Desktops sold by company B

= 1344

Also, Desktops sold by company C = 187.5% of desktop sold by the company B

So, 187.5 of the desktops sold by the company

B – 100 of the desktop sold by company B =

1344*100

Desktops sold by the company B = 1344/87.5 x

100 = 1536

Desktops sold by the company C = 187.5% of

1536 = 2880

Desktops manufactured by the company C =

2880/80 x 100 = 3600

Hence, the answer is option E
