Answers and Explanations

1 1 2 2 3 4 4 3 5 1 6 4 7 2 8 3 9 1 10 2
11 4 12 2 13 3 14 4 15 1 16 4 17 3 18 4 19 1 20 2

1. 1 Monthly salary = Rs. 5,000 8. 3 Sum of the central angle subtended by the total amount
i.e. 100% = Rs. 5,000 ⇒ Rs. 1,000 is 20% of spent on ‘Housing’ and ‘Fooding’ = 108.8°.
Rs. 5,000 Sum of the central angle subtended by the amount
So, items more than 20% are Savings and House rent. saved and that spent on ‘Electricity’ = 114.4°
108.8°
2. 2 For expenditure of Rs. 1,500: Required percentage = × 100 = 95.10%.
114.4°
1500
× 100 = 30% i.e. House rent.
5000 9. 1 Central angle measure after cutting her ‘Misc’
expenditure amount = 0.8 × 82° = 65.6°
3. 4 Rs. 5,000 = 100% This reduction in central angle measure of ‘Misc’ will
23% = ? add up to the central angle subtended by ‘savings’ i.e.
98.6° + 16.4° = 115°.
23
∴ × 5000 = Rs. 1,150 per month
100 10. 2 Amount spent on fooding and housing
For annual savings = Rs. 1,150 × 12 = Rs. 13,800. 108.8°
= × 45,000 = Rs.13,600.
360°
4. 3 100% = 360°
10
∴ 10% = × 360 = 36°. For questions 11 to 15:
100 Annual expenditure on different items:
5. 1 Salary = Rs. 8,000 per month
Annual salary = Rs. 8,000 × 12 = Rs. 96,000 120000000 × 22
Maintenance = = Rs. 2,64,00,000
Total expenditure on entertainment and petrol heads 100

= × 96,000 = Rs. 24,000. 120000000 × 13
4 Medical = = Rs. 1,56,00,000
100

6. 4 Central angle subtended by the amount spent on 120000000 × 5

Transport = = Rs. 60,00,000
‘Fooding’ and ‘Transportation’ together = 72.6° + 54.8° 100
= 127.4°
120000000 × 30
 127.4°  Salary = = Rs. 3,60,00,000
It constitutes  × 100  % = 35.38% of her 100
 360° 
120000000 × 11
monthly salary. Electricity = = Rs. 1,32,00,000
100
7. 2 Since the central angle subtended by the amount 120000000 × 12
saved and that by the amount spent on ‘Misc’ is 98.6° Telephone = = Rs. 1,44,00,000
100
and 82° respectively.
∴ The amount saved is more than the amount spent 120000000 × 7
Allowance = = Rs. 8,4,00,000

on ‘Misc’ by × 100 = 20.24%.
