1. In a class, 120 students are male and 100 students are female. 25% of male students and 20% of
female students are engineering students. 20% of the male engineering students and 25% of the
female engineering students passed the final exam. What percentage of engineering students

a) 10% b) 16% c) 22% d) 25%
Solution
Male Female Total
120 100 220
Engineering students 120×25% = 30 100×20% =20 30+20 = 50
Passed in final exam 30×20% = 6 20×25% = 5 6+5 =11
11
Percentage of engineering students passed the exam = ×100% = 22%
50
Another way (Presentation)
Engineering students male = 120× 25% = 30
Engineering students female = 100 × 20% = 20
Passed in final exam male = 30 × 20% = 6
Passed in final exam female = 20 × 25% = 5
Total passed students = 5 + 6 = 11
11
Percentage of engineering students passed the exam = × 100% = 22%

Here, People have characteristics X, nA = 57%
People have characteristics Y, nB = 63%
People have characteristics both X and Y,
n(A∩B) = ?
n(A  B) = 100%
We know, n (A  B) = nA + nB ‒ (A  B)

a) 3:1 b) 2:1
c) 1: 3 d) 1:1
Solution
Suppose, the area of the triangle ADE is x sq.
units. So, the area of the trapezoid DECB is 2x
sq. units, and therefore, the area of the triangle
ABC is (x+2x) = 3x sq. units.
As DE is parallel to BC, we can say triangles
ADE and ABC are similar triangles. We know,
in case of similar triangles, the ratio of their
areas is a: b is equal to the square of the ratio
of their corresponding lengths.
Here, ratio of their areas, ADE: ABC = 1x: 3x = 1: 3
So, (AE: AC)² = 1 : 3
Or, AE: AC = 1: 3
Answer C) 1: 3
