Question 1 of 5
1. Question
All members of a club went to Mumbai and stayed in a hotel. On the first day, 80% went for shopping and 50% went for sight-seeing, whereas 10% took rest in the hotel. Which of the following conclusion(s) can be drawn from the above data?
- 40% members went for shopping as well as sight-seeing.
- 20% members went for only shopping.
Select the correct answer using the codes given below.
Correct
Sol. (a)
Let the total members be 100.
Members who take rest = 10
Number of members left = 100 – 10 = 90
Now, number of members who went for both shopping and sight-seeing = (80 + 50) – 90 = 130
-90 = 40. Hence, following Venn diagram may be drawn.
It is clear that 40% members went for shopping only, 10% members went for sight-seeing only, and 40% members went for shopping as well as sight-seeing. Hence, only conclusion 1 is correct.
Incorrect
Sol. (a)
Let the total members be 100.
Members who take rest = 10
Number of members left = 100 – 10 = 90
Now, number of members who went for both shopping and sight-seeing = (80 + 50) – 90 = 130
-90 = 40. Hence, following Venn diagram may be drawn.
It is clear that 40% members went for shopping only, 10% members went for sight-seeing only, and 40% members went for shopping as well as sight-seeing. Hence, only conclusion 1 is correct.

Question 3 of 5
3. Question
Out of 130 students appearing in an examination, 62 failed in English, 52 failed in Mathematics, whereas 24 failed in both English and Mathematics. The number of students who passed finally is
Correct
Sol. (a)
Number of students who failed in only Mathematics = 52 – 24 = 28
Number of students who failed in only English = 62 – 24 = 38
Here,
Total number of students who failed in one or both = 28 +24 +38 = 90
So, total number of students who passed final. = 130- 90 = 40
Incorrect
Sol. (a)
Number of students who failed in only Mathematics = 52 – 24 = 28
Number of students who failed in only English = 62 – 24 = 38
Here,
Total number of students who failed in one or both = 28 +24 +38 = 90
So, total number of students who passed final. = 130- 90 = 40

Question 4 of 5
4. Question
The number of persons who read magazine X only is thrice the number of persons who read magazine Y. The number of persons who read magazine Y only is thrice the number of persons who read magazine X. Then, which of the following conclusions can be drawn?
-
- The number of persons who read both the magazines is twice the number of persons who read only magazine X.
- The total number of persons who read either one magazine or both the magazines is twice the number of persons who read both the magazines.
Select the correct answer using the codes given below.
Correct
Sol. (d)
According to the question, following Venn diagram may be drawn.
Number of people who read both the magazines = a.
Number of people who read Y magazine only = c.
Number of people who read X magazine only = b.
According to the question,
b = 3(c + a)
b = 3c + 3a
a= (b – 3c)/3 ……. (i)
and c = 3(b + a)
c = 3b + 3a
a = (c – 3b)/3 ……. (ii)
According to statement 1,
a = 2b
Which is not met by equations (i) and (ii).
According to the statement 2,
a +b + c = 2a
a = b + c
Which is not met by equations (i) and (ii).
Hence, neither of the statements is true.
Incorrect
Sol. (d)
According to the question, following Venn diagram may be drawn.
Number of people who read both the magazines = a.
Number of people who read Y magazine only = c.
Number of people who read X magazine only = b.
According to the question,
b = 3(c + a)
b = 3c + 3a
a= (b – 3c)/3 ……. (i)
and c = 3(b + a)
c = 3b + 3a
a = (c – 3b)/3 ……. (ii)
According to statement 1,
a = 2b
Which is not met by equations (i) and (ii).
According to the statement 2,
a +b + c = 2a
a = b + c
Which is not met by equations (i) and (ii).
Hence, neither of the statements is true.

Question 5 of 5
5. Question
There are 50 students admitted to a nursery class. Some students can speak only English and some can speak only Hindi. 10 students can speak both English and Hindi. If the number of students who can speak English is 21, then how many students can speak Hindi, how many can speak only Hindi and how many can speak only English?
Correct
Sol. (d)
Let the sets E and H represent the number of students who can speak English and Hindi, respectively.
Now, n(E Ս H) = 50
n(E Ո H) = 10
n(E) = 21
We need to determine n(H), n(H Ո E^C) and n(E Ո H^C)
Since, n(E U H) = n(E) + n(H) – n(E Ո H)
= 50 = 21 + n(H) – 10
n(H)= 39
and n(H Ո E^C) = n(H) – n(E Ո H)
= 39 – 10 = 29
and n(E Ո H^C) = n(E) – n(E Ո H)
= 21 – 10 = 11
Hence, option (d) is correct.Incorrect

= 50 = 21 + n(H) – 10
n(H)= 39
and n(H Ո E^C) = n(H) – n(E Ո H)
= 39 – 10 = 29
and n(E Ո H^C) = n(E) – n(E Ո H)
= 21 – 10 = 11
Hence, option (d) is correct.
