Directions (Q. 6-10): Study the following information carefully to answer the questions that follow: (RBI Grade’B’ Officer’s Exam 2011) 
There are two trains, Train A and Train B. Both trains have four different types of coaches, viz General, Sleeper, First Class and AC. In Train A, there are total 700 passengers. Train B has thirty per cent more passengers than Train A. Twenty per cent of the passengers of Train A are in General Coach. One-fourth of the total number of passengers of Train A are in AC coach. Twenty three per cent of the passengers of Train A are in Sleeper Coach. Remaining passengers of Train A are in First Class Coach. The total number of passengers in AC Coach in both the trains together is 480. Thirty per cent of the number of passengers of Train B are in Sleeper Coach. Ten per cent of the total passengers of Train B are in First Class Coach. The remaining passengers of Train B are in General Coach.

6. What is the ratio of the number of passengers in First Class Coach of Train A to the number of passengers in Sleeper Coach of Train B?
(1) 13 : 7
(2) 7 : 13
(3) 32 : 39
(4) Data Inadequate
(5) None of these

7. What is the total number of passengers in the General Coach of Train A and the AC Coach of Train B together?
(1) 449
(2) 459
(3) 435
(4) 445
(5) None of these

8. What is the difference between the number of passengers in the AC Coach of Train A and the total number of passengers in Sleeper and First Class Coach together of Train B?
(1) 199
(2) 178
(3) 187
(4) 179
(5) None of these

9. The total number of passengers in General Coaches of both the trains together is approximately what percentage of the total number of passengers in Train B?
(1) 35
(2) 42
(3) 46
(4) 38
(5) 31

10. If the cost per ticket of First Class coach is Rs.450, what will be the total amount generated from First Class Coach of Train A?
(1) Rs.1, 00, 080
(2) Rs.1, 08, 000
(3) Rs.1, 00, 800
(4) Rs.10, 800
(5) None of these

1.  (3) 1887: 2527
Solution: Total flooring area with marble = locker area + record keeping + pantry
= 182+273 +609 = 1064 sqm
 Cost of flooring = 1064*190
Total flooring area with wooden = Branch Manager room + Hall
= 221 + 667 = 888 sqm
Cost of flooring = 888*170
Ratio= 888*170: 1064*190 = 888*17: 1064*19 = 15096 : 20216 = 1887: 2527

2. (5) None of these
Solution: Cost of flooring of branch manager room =221*170= Rs. 37570
Cost of painting = [2(17*12+13*12)+ 13*17]*190
= [2( 204 + 156) + 221]*190 = (2*360 + 221)*190
= (720 + 221)*190 = 941*190 = Rs. 178790
Total cost = 178790 + 31570 = Rs.216360

3. (5) None of these
Solution: Total area of bank = 2000 sqm
Total flooring area = 1952 sqm
Remaining area = 2000 - 1952 = 48 sqm
Cost of carpeting = 48 x 110 = Rs.5280

4. (2) 2.4%
Solution:- Area not to be renovated = 48 sqm
Therefore, Required % = 48*100/2000 = 2.4%

5. (1) Rs. 2,29,100
Solution: Cost of renovation of hall + locker area
= 667x170 + 609x190
= 113390 + 115710 = Rs. 229100

6. 3            7. 4            8. 5            9. 2            10. 3
