Each person living in a certain city speaks exactly one
language among six different languages – English, Hindi,
Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu and Marathi. The first pie chart
below gives the number of persons in the city who speak
each language at the beginning of 2010. The second pie
chart gives the exact percentage breakup of the number of
persons who speak each language at the beginning of
2015. It is known that, between 2010 and 2015, no person
learned to speak another language and there were no births
or deaths in the city. However, some persons in the city
might have moved out of the city and/or some persons from
outside the city might have moved into the city. Every
person who moved into the city speaks exactly one of the
six languages.

Q1. If the number of persons who speak Hindi remained the

same during the given period, what is the minimum number
of persons who would have moved out of the city?

Q2. If no person moved out of the city between 2010 and

2015, what is the minimum number of people who speak
Malayalam that must have moved into the city?

and Statistics increases by 12% and decreased by 9% for
the other two subjects. Itemwise percentage breakups of
academic fees remains unchanged. Approximately what is
the difference between total fees of 2 semesters?
1) Rs.7700 2) Rs.7200 3) Rs.8100 4) Rs.3300

Q3. The university adds one more subject 'Mathematics' to

the course, which does not need a lab. Hence lab fees and
lab deposits that are allotted for Mathematics are distributed
evenly among all the remaining categories of academic
fees. What will be the approximate total fees for Semester I,
given that tution fees for Mathematics is Rs.24000?
(Assume that the overall itemwise percentage break up of
the academic fees of a subject remains the same.)
