Instructions

Study the information to answer these questions.
In a city there are six modes of transport available A, B, C, D, E and F for commuting. Out of a total number of commuters commuting daily in the city, 17171 commute only by A. 7359 commute only by B and 22077 commute only by C. 1471.8 commute only by D, 4906 commute only by E and 7359 commute only by F. 26983 commute by C as well as A , 9812 commute by E as well as A. 12265 commute by C as well as E daily. Assume that there is no overlap between the commuters of different modes (and their combination) of transport.

Question 90

The total number of commuters commuting by A form ______ percent of the total number of commuters commuting daily.

Solution

We are given the following information, 
17171 commute only by A
7359 commute only by B 
22077 commute only by C
14718 commute only by D
4906 commute only by E 
7359 commute only by F
26983 commute by C as well as A
9812 commute by E as well as A
12265 commute by C as well as E

And we are given that there is no further overlap between any two modes of transport. 

The total number of people commuting will be: 122650

The number of people using A is: 53966

Percentage-wise, this will be, $$\frac{53966}{122650}\times100=44\%$$
