Instructions

In a team there are 240 members (males and females). Two-third of them are males. Fifteen percent of males are graduates. Remaining males are nongraduates. Three-fourth of the females are graduates. Remaining females are non-graduates

Question 39

What is the sum of the number of females who are graduates and the number of males who are non-graduates?

Solution

Total members = 240

Number of males = $$\ \frac{\ 2}{3}\times\ 240$$ = 160

Number of males who are non-graduates =  $$\ \frac{\ 85}{100}\times\ 160$$ = 136

Number of females = $$\ \frac{\ 1}{3}\times\ 240$$ = 80

Number of females who are graduates = $$\ \frac{\ 3}{4}\times\ 80$$ = 60

Sum of male non graduates and female graduates = 136+60=196

D is the correct answer.
