Answers:
1. What was the respective ratio between the number of candidates qualified in the written test in the year 1992 for admission in Bharti College and the number of candidates qualified in the written test in the year 1996 for admission to ARSD College?
(a) 8 : 7

(d) 7 : 10
(e) 8 : 3
Ans 1. Soln. (c);
Number of students qualified in the written test
in the year 1992 for admission in Bharti College = 3500
Number of students qualified in the written test
in the year 1996 for admission in ARSD College = 4000
Required ratio = 3500/4000=7/8=7∶8
2. What was the approximate average number of candidates qualified in the written test for admission to Bharti college over all the year?
(a) 4567
(b) 4267
(c) 4167
(d) 4867
(e) 4667
Ans 2. Soln. (e);
Average number of candidates
(3500+4000+4000+5500+5000+6000)/6
=28000/6≈4667
3. In which year, the total number of candidates qualified in the written test for admission to both the institutions together was the highest?
(a) 1993
(b) 1994
(c) 1995
(d) 1996
(e) None of these
Ans 3. Soln. (e);
Number of students in
1992 is 2000 + 3500 = 5500
1993 is 3500 + 4000 = 7500
1994 is 5000 + 4000 = 9000
1995 is 6000 + 5500 = 11500
1996 is 4000 + 5000 = 9000
1997 is 6500 + 6000 = 12500
Hence, 1997 year was the highest amongst all.
