Consider the following table which contains number of newspapers printed (within bracket) in each printing press and number of newspaper distributed in a day in a particular city. Based on the data in the table, answer the question that follows.Newspaper/City Newspaper (W)
(500) Newspaper (Y)
(10000)Newspaper (y)
(10000)Newspaper (Z)
(5000)City 1 1500 3000 35000 1000 City 2 1000 3500 3000 1000 City 3 500 1500 1500 500 City 4 500 1000 500 1500
What is the percentage of Newspaper Y distribution with total distribution?
35%
This question was officially dropped by UGC NET (full marks were awarded to all candidates) because the table's third column is printed inconsistently between the English and Hindi versions of the paper: the English print shows City 1's figure as 35,000, while the Hindi print correctly shows 3,500, and the column headers ('Y' appearing twice in the English print) do not even match the Hindi print's clean W, X, Y, Z labelling.
Reading the table consistently as W, X, Y, Z (using the Hindi print's non-typo value of 3,500 for City 1), the distribution totals are: W = 3500, X = 3000+3500+1500+1000 = 9000, Y = 3500+3000+1500+500 = 8500, Z = 4000, giving a grand total of 25,000.
Newspaper Y's share = 8500 ÷ 25000 × 100 = 34%, which is closest to the accepted answer of 35% — the small residual gap reflects exactly the printing inconsistency that led UGC to void this question rather than score it.
