CMAT Data Interpretation Questions

Number of multigrain packets sold by store C, D and E = 72, 54 and 84 respectively.

Number of whole wheat packets sold by store A and E = 44 and 72 respectively.

So, number of multigrain packets sold by store F = $$\dfrac{72+54+84}{3}=70$$

Number of whole wheat packets sold by store F = $$\dfrac{44+72}{2}=\dfrac{116}{2}=58$$

So, total number of packets sold by store F = $$70+58=128$$

Selling Price of each packet of store F = ₹ $$240\times\ 1.2=288$$

So, total revenue collected by store F = ₹ $$288\times\ 128$$ = ₹ $$36864$$

So, option B is the correct answer.

Total number of packets sold by store C = 80+72 = 152

Total number of packets sold by store E = 84+72 = 156

Hence, percentage less = $$\dfrac{152-156}{156}\times\ 100\%=-\dfrac{4}{156}\times\ 100\%=-2.56\%$$

Among the given options, option (B), $$3\%$$ less is the closest.

So, option (B) is the correct answer.

Multigrain packets sold by store A and B = $$92+64=156$$

Whole-wheat packets sold by store C and D = $$80+40=120$$

So, required percentage increase = $$\dfrac{156-120}{120}\times\ 100\%=\dfrac{36}{120}\times\ 100\%=30\%$$ more.

So, option (D) is the correct answer.

Total number of students pursuing specialization in operations, marketing and finance collectively

=$$\dfrac{73}{100}\times\ 3600=2628$$

The total number of students who got placed from all the specialization together

= $$1200$$

So, required percentage = $$\dfrac{1200}{2628}\times\ 100=45.66\ \%\ $$

So, correct answer is option C.

Total number of students pursuing specialization in Business Analytics and HR combined

= $$\dfrac{27}{100}\times\ 3600=972$$

The number of student who got placed from marketing specialization and finance specialization combined

=$$\dfrac{30}{100}\times\ 1200=360$$

So, required difference = $$972-360=612$$

So, correct answer is option D.

Number of students who got placed from the HR specialization = $$\dfrac{11}{100}\times\ 1200=132$$

Number of students studying in HR specialization = $$\dfrac{12}{100}\times3600=432$$

So, required percentage = $$\dfrac{132}{432}\times\ 100=30.56\%$$

So, correct answer is option (B).

Number of kurtis (linen and cotton) sold by store D = 10080

number of linen kurtis sold by store B = 8400

$$\frac{\left(10080-8400\right)}{8400}=\frac{1680}{8400}=\frac{1}{5}=20\%$$

The number of linen kurtis sold by stores D and E together = 6300+13440 = 19740

The average is 9870.

The number of cotton kurtis sold by stores D and E together = 3780+10080 = 13860

The average is 6930.

The difference = 9870 - 6930 = 2940

Ratio between number of kurtis (linen and cotton) sold by store C and number of linen kurtis sold by store F = 6720:8232 = 40:49
