solution (1-5)

Number of boys=7/12X7200=4200
Number of girls=5/12X7200=3000
Number of students in B.tech.(Nano Technology)=22% of 7200=1584
Number of girls in B.tech.(Computer Science)=16% of 30000=480
Number of boys in B.tech.(Mechanical)=18% of 4200=756
Number of girls in B.tech.(Civil)=30% of 480=144
Number of boys in B.tech.(Electronics)=15% of 4200=630
Number of boys in B.tech.(Computer Science)=50% of 480=240
Number of girls in B.tech.(Aerospace)=15% of 3000=450
Number of boys in B.tech.(Civil)=3/1X144=432
Number of students in B.tech.(Electronics)=24% of 7200=1728
therefore, Number of girls in B. Tech (Electronics)=1728-630=1098
Number of boys in B. Tech (Aerospace)=12/5X450=1080
Number of boys in B. Tech (Nano Technology)=4200-(756+630+240+432+1080)
=4200-3138=1062
therefore, Number of girls in B.Tech. (Nano Technology)=1584-1062=522
Number of girls in B.Tech (Mechanical)= Remaining number of girls
=3000-(480+144+450+1098+522)
=3000-2694=306


1.(a); From the table, it is clear that total number of students enrolled in B. Tech (Mechanical)=756+306=1062

2.(c); Number of girls enrolled in B.Tech (Electronics)=1098
Therefore, Required percentage=1098/7200X100%=15.25%=15%

3.(e); Number of girls enrolled in B.Tech. (Nano Technology)=522

4.(d);Number of boys enrolled in B.Tech. (Aerospace)=1080
Number of girls enrolled in B.Tech. (Computer Science)=480
Therefore, Required percentage=1080/480X100%=225%

5.(b);Total number of boys enrolled in B.Tech. (Civil)=432

solution (6-10)

6(e); No of men working in marketing department=3250X(79.2/360)X(3/5)=429

7(c); No of women working in HR department=3250X(36/360)X(13/25)
No of men working in IT department=3250X(57.6/360)X(7/10)
Required ratio=36X13X10/(57.6X7X25)=13:28

8(e); No of men working in production department=3250X(136.8/360)X(4/5)
Total of of employee working in production=3250X(136.8/360)
Required %=(4/5)X100=80%

9(b); No of women working in IT department=3250X(57.6/360)X(3/10)=156
Required %=(156/3250)x100=4.8%

10(b)
