Solution
2.Required% = [(850+920+890+980+1350)/(7400+8450+7800+8700+9800)] × 100
= (4990/42150) × 100 = 11.84%
3.Required% = [(840+1050+920+980+1020)/(7500+9200+8450+9200+8800)] × 100
= (4810/43150) × 100 = 11.15%
4.Required avg = (8100+9500+8700+9700+8950)/5 = 44950/5 = 8990
5.The percentage of candidates qualified to candidates appeared from state P during different years are:
For, 1997 = (780/6400) × 100 = 12.19%
For, 1998 = (1020/8800) × 100 = 11.59%
For, 1999 = (890/7800) × 100 = 11.41%
For, 2000 = (1010/8750) × 100 = 11.54%
For, 2001 = (1250/9750) × 100 = 12.82%
So, maximum percentage is for the year 2001.
6.Required% = [(720+840+780+950+870)/(980+1050+1020+1240+940)] × 100
= (4160/5230) × 100 = 80%(approx)
7.Aggregate marks obtained by Sajal
= [(90% of 150) + (60% of 130) + (70% of 120) + (70% of 100) + (90% of 60) + (70% of 40)]
= 135 + 78 + 84 + 70 + 54 + 28 = 449
8.Aggregate marks obtained by Tarun
= [(65% of 150) + (35% of 130) + (50% of 120) + (77% of 100) + (80% of 60) + (80% of 40)]
= 97.5 + 45.5 + 60 + 77 + 48 + 32 = 360
Total maximum marks = (150 + 130 + 120 + 100 + 60 + 40) = 600
Overall percentage of Tarun = (360/600) × 100 = 60% 9.Average marks obtained in Physics by all the seven students = 1/7 [(90% of 120) + (80% of 120) + (70% of 120) + (80% of 120) + (85% of 120) + (65% of 120) + (50% of 120)] = 1/7 (520% of 120) = 624/7 = 89.14 10.From the table it is clear that Sajal and Rohit have 60% or more marks in each of six subjects.
