XAT 2014 - Question 81

Which of the following could be the correct ascending order of democratic regions for poor?

Solution

We have to mark the option which displays an ascending order of democratic regions for the poor.

From the charts, we can see that the lowest value is displayed by C & E Europe (<5).

Option D has C & E Europe as the first name, so it could be the answer. Checking the remaining regions in option D, we get Africa (approx. 10), South America (14), Western Europe (19.99) and Scandinavia (20).

Thus, the order should be C&E Europe, Africa, South America, Western Europe and Scandinavia.

Hence, option D is the answer.

XAT 2014 - Question 82

Which region has the highest disparity, of democratic participation, between rich and poor?

Solution

We have to find the region with the highest disparity in democratic participation between rich and poor. We can check this by calculating the difference between the highest and lowest values from the chart.

North America = 20 - 18 = 2

C&E Europe = 20 - 5 = 15

Africa = 11 - 10 = 1

South America = 20 - 14 = 6

Western Europe = 19.95 - 19.85 = 0.1

Thus, C&E Europe has the highest disparity between the rich and the poor.

Hence, option B is the answer.
