Data Interpretation Question for IBPS SO 2015 Answers
1. (a)
Total number of assistants = 15% of 7000
\(= \frac { 15 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 1050\)
Number of direct recruits = 40% of 1050
\(\frac { 40 } { 100 } \times 1050 = 420\)
Now, number of promotee assistants
= 1050 – 420 = 630
Hence, required difference = 630 – 420 = 210
2. (c)
Number of clerk I = 19% of 7000
\(= \frac { 19 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 1330\)
Number of direct recruits = 90% of 1330
\(= \frac { 90 \times 1330 } { 100 } = 1197\)
Now, number of promotees = 1330 – 1197 = 133
Hence, required percentage
\(= \frac { 133 } { 1197 } \times 100 = \frac { 13300 } { 1200 } = 11 \%\)
3. (e)
Number of supervisors = 17% of 7000
\(= \frac { 17 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 1190\)
4. (b)
Type of employees | Number |
Steno | \(\frac { 10 } { 100 } \times \frac { 30 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 210\) |
Assistant | \( \frac { 15 } { 100 } \times \frac { 40 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 420 \) |
Supervisor | \( \frac { 17 } { 100 } \times \frac { 50 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 595 \) |
Clerk I | \( \frac { 19 } { 100 } \times \frac { 90 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 1197 \) |
Clerk II |
\( \frac { 20 } { 100 } \times \frac { 3 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 420 \) |
Officer I | \( \frac { 90 } { 100 } \times \frac { 8 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 504 \) |
Officer II | \( \frac { 11 } { 100 } \times \frac { 70 } { 100 } \times 7000 = 539 \) |
Total direct recruitment
= 210 + 420 + 595 + 1197 + 420 + 54 + 539 = 3885
5. (c)
Clerk I has maximum number of direct recruits.
6. (e)
Let the expenditure of company A be
\(= 142500 \times \frac { 100 } { 150 } \)
= ₹ 95000
7. (b)
Let the expenditure of company B in 2011 be ₹ 100.
\(\frac { \left( \mathrm { I } _ { 1 } – 100 \right) } { 100 } \times 100 = 35\)
⇒ I1= 100 + 35 = ₹ 135
Now, expenditure in 2012 = ₹ 9
\(Now\quad \frac { \left( { I }_{ { 2 } }-90 \right) }{ 90 } \times 100=45\)
⇒ 405 – I2 + 900 = 0
\(\Rightarrow \mathrm { I } _ { 2 } = \frac { 1305 } { 10 }\)
= ₹ 130.5
Hence required %
\(= \frac { 130.5 \times 100 } { 135 } = 96 \frac { 2 } { 3 } \%\)
8. (c)
Expenditure of company A = ₹ 70 lac Then, income of company A in 2010
\(= \frac { 125 } { 100 } \times 70\)
= ₹ 87.5 lac
Hence, required total = ₹ (87.5 + 131.25) lac = ₹ 218.75 lac
9. (a)
Given that,
\(\frac { \text { Exp. of } \mathrm { B } \text { in } 2009 } { \text { Exp. of } \mathrm { B } \text { in } 2010 } = \frac { 5 } { 7 }\)
\(= \frac { \text { Income of } \mathrm { B } \text { in } 2009 \times \frac { 100 } { 140 } } { \text { Income of } \mathrm { B } \text { in } 2010 \times \frac { 100 } { 130 } } = \frac { 5 } { 7 }\)
\(= \frac { \mathrm { IB } 2009 } { \mathrm { IB } 2010 } = \frac { 5 \times 140 } { 7 \times 130 } = \frac { 10 } { 13 }\)
10. (d)
Let the expenditure of company ‘A’ be ₹ a
Then, expenditure of company B = ₹ (135.5 – a) lac
\(\frac { \left( I _ { 1 } – a \right) } { a } \times 100 = 45 \quad\) [company A] ……. (i)
\(and\quad \frac { \left[ { I }_{ { 2 } }-(13.5-{ a }) \right] }{ (13.5-{ a }) } \times 100=50\) [company B] …… (ii)
Here, we have three unknowns but two equations.
Hence, I1 + I2 connot be determined.
11. (a)
Total sales of Ruby
= 200 + 100 + 200 + 200 + 200 = 900
Now, required %
\(= \frac { 900 } { 5200 } \times 100 = 17.3 \%\)
12. (d)
Avg. annual sales of Emerald
\(= \frac { 1400 } { 5 } = 2800\)
∴Required %
\(= \frac { 280 – 200 } { 200 } \times 100 = 40 \%\)
13. (c)
It is clear from the chart.
14. (c)
Sales of Topaz in 2008-09
\(=\frac { 200000 }{ 1.25 } =1600000\quad tonnes\)
Sales of topaz in 2014 – 2015 = 200000 × 1.5 = 300000 tonnes
Now, required increase = 300000 – 160000 = 140000 tonnes
15. (a)
Highest % growth can be measured for Topaz.
Calculation for Questions (292 to 296) :
Facilities | No. of Villagers |
Have only adequate water supply | \( \frac { 25 } { 100 } \times 1800 = 450 \) |
Have only proper electric supply | \( \frac { 15 } { 100 } \times 1800 = 270 \) |

Have proper water supply, electric supply and health care services |
\( \frac { 8 } { 100 } \times 1800 = 144 \) |
Have proper electric supply telecommunication and health care services | \(\frac { 5 } { 100 } \times 1800 = 90\) |
Have all the facilities | \(\frac { 6 } { 100 } \times 1800 = 108\) |
16. (d)
Number of villages with adequate water supply
= 450+ 108+ 144+ 108 = 810
17. (a)
Number of villages with an adequate supply of water and electricity
= 108 + 144 + 108 = 360
18. (d)
Number of villages with a proper supply of electricity
= 270 + 108 + 144 + 90 + 108 = 720
Number of villages not having proper electric supply = 1800 – 720 = 1080
19. (b)
Number of villages with only proper education facilities = 126
20. (e)
Number of villages with all the facilities =108
