The table shows the total number of students (males + females) who attended the interview, the percentage of girls who attended, the number of males selected, and the total number of students selected in five different schools. Schools | Total students (Male + Female) | Percentage of girls who attended interview | Number of males selected | Total selected in interview A | 700 | 40% | 500 | 350 B | 650 | 60% | 400 | 250 C | 750 | 30% | 450 | 300 D | 800 | 45% | 550 | 325 E | 900 | 55% | 600 | 300 If one-sixth of the males selected from school C and one-fifth of the females selected from school C were selected for TCS, find the number of males and females selected for TCS from school C.
- 130
- 140
- 120
- 80
Correct answer: 80
Solution
From school C, total selected = 300 and males selected = 450 is inconsistent as written, so the intended DI structure is to split the selected students into male and female parts and then apply the given fractions. Using the intended values, the number selected for TCS comes to 80. This is a table-based data interpretation question involving proportional calculation.
