Rajasthan3:43:2
Maharashtra6:53:8
Delhi5:32:5

Himachal Pradesh1:22:1
Chhattisgarh3:47:2
Orissa4:33:1

  1. What is the total number of illiterate of people from Maharashtra and Chhattisgarh together?
    a) 90 millions
    b) 120 millions
    c) 130 millions
    d) 125 millions
    e) None of these
    Answer – a) 90 millions
    Explanation :
    Maharashtra = 500*(22/100)*8/11 = 80 million
    Chhattisgarh = 500*(9/100)*2/9 = 10. So total = 80 + 10 = 90 millions

  2. What is the total number of male literate from Rajasthan?
    a) 13 million
    b) 15 million
    c) 16 million
    d) can’t be determined
    e) None of these
    Answer – d) can’t be determined
    Explanation :
    Total population of Rajasthan = 500*10/100 = 50 million. We can calculate the number of women and men. We can calculate the number of literates and illiterates in Rajasthan. But in the number of literates we can’t calculate the number of male literate.

  3. In Chhattisgarh 90% of males and 85% of females are literate, what is the total number of illiterates?
    a) 6.66 million
    b) 5.78 million
    c) 7.48 million
    d) 8.38 million
    e) None of these
    Answer – b) 5.78 million
    Explanation :
    Population of Chhattisgarh = (9/100)*500 = 45 million
    total illiterate = 45*(3/7)*(10/100) + 45*(4/7)*(15/100) = 5.78 million (approx)

  4. What is the ratio of illiterate of Delhi to literates of Orissa?
    a) 100:51
    b) 100: 67
    c) 100:63
    d) 100:77
    e) None of these
    Answer – c) 100:63
    Explanation :
    ratio = [500*(20/100)*(5/7)]/[500*(12/100)*(3/4)]

  5. If the total population of Rajasthan and Maharashtra is increased by 10% and 15% respectively in comparison to the previous year, then what will be the ratio of population of two states?
    a) 10:27
    b) 10:23
    c) 10:21
    d) 11:23
    e) None of these
    Answer – b) 10:23
    Explanation :
    Ratio = 500*(10/100)*(110/100) : 500*(22/100)*(115/100)

    c) 12:7
    d) 11:3
    e) None of these
    Answer – b) 11:9
    Explanation :
