For H.P. = 82 + 65 + 70 + 86 + 75 /5 = 378 /5 = 75.6.
For U.P. = 78 + 85 + 48 + 70 + 80 /5 = 361 /5 = 72.2.
For Punjab = 85 + 70 + 65 + 84 + 60 /5 = 364/5 = 72.8.
For Haryana = 75 + 75 + 55 + 60 + 75 /5 = 340 /5 = 68.
Clearly, this average is maximum for Delhi.

Explanation:
The percentages of candidates qualified from Punjab over those appeared from Punjab during different years are:
For 1997 = ( 680 x 100 ) /8200 % = 8.29%.
For 1998 = ( 600 x 100 ) 6800 % = 8.82%.
For 1999 = ( 525 x 100 ) /6500 % = 8.08%.
For 2000 = ( 720 x 100 ) /7800 % = 9.23%.
For 2001 =( 485 x 100 ) /5700 % = 8.51%.

For 1998 = ( 85 x 100 ) /620% = 13.71%.
For 1999 = ( 48 x 100 ) /400 % = 12%.
For 2000 = ( 70 x 100 ) /650% = 10.77%.
For 2001 = (80 x 100 ) /950% = 8.42%.
Clearly, this percentage is highest for the year 1998.

Proportion of Population of Seven Villages in 1997
1. If the population of village R in 1997 is 32000, then what will be the population of village Y below poverty line in that year?
A. 14100
B.15600
C. 16500
D. 17000
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Population of village R = 32000 (given).
Let the population of village Y be y.
Then, 16 : 15 = 32000 : y=> y = ( 15 x 32000) /16 = 30000.
Therefore Population of village Y below poverty line = 52% of 30000 = 15600.
2 The ratio of population of village T below poverty line to that of village Z below poverty line in 1997 is:
A. 11 : 23
B. 13 : 11
C. 23 : 11
D. 11 : 13
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let N be the total population of all the seven villages.
Then, population of village T below poverty line = 46% of (21% of N)
and Population of villages Z below the poverty line = 42% of (11% of N)
Therefore Required ratio = 46% of (21% of N) = 46 x 21 = 22000.
42% of (11 % of N) 42 x 11
3. Find the population of village S if the population of village X below poverty line in 1997 is 12160.
A. 18500
B. 20500
C. 22000
D. 26000
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let the population of village X be x.
Then, 38% of x = 12160 => x = 12160 x 100 /38= 32000.
Now, if s be the population of village S, then
16 : 11 = 32000 : s => s = ( 11 x 3200 ) /16= 22000.
4. If in 1998, the population of villages Y and V increase by 10% each and the percentage of population below poverty line remains unchanged for all the villages, then find the population of village V below poverty line in 1998, given that the population of village Y in 1997 was 30000.
A. 11250
B. 12760
C. 13140
D.13780
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Population of village Y in 1997 = 30000 (given).
Let the population of village V in 1997 be v.
Then, 15 : 10 = 30000 : v => v = 30000 x 10 /15= 20000.
Now, population of village V in 1998 = 20000 + (10% of 20000) = 22000.
Therefore Population of village V below poverty line in 1998 = 58% of 22000 = 12760.
