The table given below shows the distribution percentage of number of candidates qualifying a Common Entrance Test (CET) in six cities A-F during the year 2020 and 2021, along with the ratio of males (M) to females (F) among the qualified candidates. The total number of qualified candidates in all the six cities together during 2020 and 2021 are 3800 and 4600 respectively. Based on the data in the table, answer the question that follows: City-wise Distribution of CET Qualified Candidates. Year 2020 2021 City (Distribution % of Qualified Candidates) Ratio (Distribution % of Qualified Candidates) Ratio M ∶ F M ∶ F A 13% 8 ∶ 5 24% 5 ∶ 7 B 27% 11 ∶ 8 15% 12 ∶ 11 C 11% 7 ∶ 4 23% 15 ∶ 8 D 20% 2 ∶ 3 17% 8 ∶ 9 E 8% 5 ∶ 3 8% 1 ∶ 3 F 21% 13 ∶ 8 13% 5 ∶ 8
The number of females qualified from City-F in 2020 is ____________ % of the number of candidates qualified from City-E in the same year.
100
The question asks us to determine the number of females qualified from City-F in 2020 as a percentage of the total number of candidates qualified from City-E in the same year. We need to use the provided table showing the distribution percentage of qualified candidates and the male-to-female ratios for each city and year.
| Year | 2020 | 2021 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| City | Distribution % of Qualified Candidates | Ratio M &Female; F | Distribution % of Qualified Candidates | Ratio M &Female; F |
| A | 13% | 8 ∶ 5 | 24% | 5 ∶ 7 |
| B | 27% | 11 ∶ 8 | 15% | 12 ∶ 11 |
| C | 11% | 7 ∶ 4 | 23% | 15 ∶ 8 |
| D | 20% | 2 ∶ 3 | 17% | 8 ∶ 9 |
| E | 8% | 5 ∶ 3 | 8% | 1 ∶ 3 |
| F | 21% | 13 ∶ 8 | 13% | 5 ∶ 8 |
We are given the total number of qualified candidates in all six cities for 2020 is 3800.
First, let's find the total number of qualified candidates from City-F in 2020. The table shows that 21% of the total qualified candidates in 2020 were from City-F.
Next, we find the number of females from City-F in 2020. The male to female ratio for City-F in 2020 is given as 13:8. The total parts in the ratio are $13 + 8 = 21$.
So, the number of females qualified from City-F in 2020 is 304.
Now, let's find the total number of qualified candidates from City-E in 2020. The table shows that 8% of the total qualified candidates in 2020 were from City-E.
So, the total number of candidates qualified from City-E in 2020 is 304.
Finally, we need to find the number of females qualified from City-F in 2020 as a percentage of the total number of candidates qualified from City-E in the same year.
Therefore, the number of females qualified from City-F in 2020 is 100% of the number of candidates qualified from City-E in the same year.
| Metric | Value (2020) |
|---|---|
| Total Qualified Candidates (All Cities) | 3800 |
| Distribution % City-F | 21% |
| Ratio M:F City-F | 13:8 |
| Distribution % City-E | 8% |
| Number of Candidates City-F | $3800 \times 0.21 = 798$ |
| Females in City-F | $798 \times (8/21) = 304$ |
| Number of Candidates City-E | $3800 \times 0.08 = 304$ |
| Females City-F as % of Candidates City-E | $(304 / 304) \times 100\%$ = 100% |
Percentage calculation is a fundamental concept in quantitative aptitude. A percentage represents a part of a whole, expressed as a fraction of 100. The formula to calculate the percentage of a value 'A' with respect to a value 'B' is:
$\text{Percentage} = \frac{A}{B} \times 100\%$
In this problem, 'A' is the number of females from City-F in 2020, and 'B' is the total number of candidates from City-E in 2020. Both values were calculated based on the given total qualified candidates for the year and the respective distribution percentages from the table.
Ratio analysis is also crucial. A ratio like M:F means that for every M males, there are F females. The total number of individuals is proportional to M + F. To find the number of females when the total is known and the ratio M:F is given, you calculate: Total $\times \frac{F}{M+F}$.
