Solutions for\u00a0CAT Data Interpretation Practice Questions Set-2:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Solutions (1 – 5):<\/strong><\/p>\n

1) Answer (D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2011
\nProduction = 200, Exports = 110 so consumption = 90
\nIn 2012
\nProduction = 240, Exports = 130 so consumption = 120
\nIn 2013
\nProduction = 220, Exports = 120 so consumption = 100
\nIn 2014,
\nProduction = 300, Exports = 170 so consumption = 130
\nIn 2015
\nProduction = 250, Exports = 140 so consumption = 110
\nClearly the required ratio is highest for 2014.<\/p>\n

2) Answer (C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2011
\nProduction = 200
\nIn 2012
\nProduction = 240
\nIn 2013
\nProduction = 220
\nIn 2014,
\nProduction = 300
\nIn 2015
\nProduction = 250
\nSo the percentage change in production is highest for the year 2014.<\/p>\n

3) Answer (A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Population = Consumption\/per capita consumption
\nIn 2011
\nConsumption = 90, Per capita consumption = 40
\nIn 2012
\nConsumption = 120, Per capita consumption = 50
\nIn 2013
\nConsumption = 100, Per capita consumption = 40
\nIn 2014,
\nConsumption = 130, Per capita consumption = 30
\nIn 2015
\nConsumption = 110, Per capita consumption = 50
\nClearly, this ratio is highest for the year 2014.<\/p>\n

4) Answer (A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2013
\nConsumption = 100, Per capita consumption = 40
\nSo required population = 100\/40 = 2.5 million.<\/p>\n

5) Answer (B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2011
\nProduction = 200, Exports = 110 so consumption = 90
\nIn 2012
\nProduction = 240, Exports = 130 so consumption = 110
\nIn 2013
\nProduction = 220, Exports = 120 so consumption = 100
\nIn 2014,
\nProduction = 300, Exports = 170 so consumption = 130
\nIn 2015
\nProduction = 250, Exports = 140 so consumption = 110
\nSo the percentage change in consumption is highest for the year 2014.<\/p>\n

Solutions (6 – 10):<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the given graph, the percentage increase in Mercury automatic cars in 2012 is 20% and that of Venus automatic cars is 30%. Let the number of Mercury automatic cars in 2011 be x and the number of Venus automatic cars in 2012 be y. Thus, total number of automatic cars in 2011 = x + y. Given, total number of automatic cars increases by 23.33% in 2012.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thus, total number of automatic cars in 2012 = 1.233(x + y) = 1.2x + 1.3y<\/p>\n

.05x = .1y<\/p>\n

=> x = 2y. Thus, the number of automatic Mercury cars in 2011 is twice that of Venus automatic cars. Let, the number of Mercury automatic cars in 2011 be 100k and Venus automatic cars be 50k. Using information from the given chart, the following table can be formed:
\n
6) Answer (B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the table, we can see that the number of Semi-Automatic cars of Mercury sold was greater than the number of Semi-Automatic cars of Venus in 2011 and 2015. Thus, B is the right choice.<\/p>\n

7) Answer (D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Total number of Semi-Automatic cars sold by AUXN in 2012 = 30k + 35k = 65k
\nTotal number of cars sold by AUXN in 2012 = 150k + 100k = 250k
\nThus, the required percentage = $$\\frac{65}{250}\\times100$$% = 26%<\/p>\n

8) Answer (B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The total number of cars sold was less only in 2012. Thus, B is the right choice.<\/p>\n

9) Answer (A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The number of Semi-Automatic Mercury cars in 2014 = 50K
\nThe number of Semi-Automatic Mercury cars in 2013 = 30K
\nThus, the required percentage increase = $$\\frac{50k – 30k}{30k}\\times100$$% = 66.67%<\/p>\n

10) Answer (C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the table the required ratio = 50k : 50k = 1:1<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
