All countries that have reported more than five hundred cancers to the WHO in 2007 are listed here. The left column gives the total number of cases reported by each country for 2006, the middle column gives the 2006 rate (cancer cases per 10,000 population) and the last column shows the number of cases reported in early 2007.
Most of the 2007 reports were for only the first quarter of the year. Owing to reporting delays of six months or more, cases reported in 2007 actually were diagnosed in 2006.
What is the population of AD on the basis of the reported cases of cancer in 2006 (in thousands)?
- 825,000
- 812,500
- 810,000
- None of these
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Reported cases in 2006 = \(7100\)
Rate of cases reported in \(2006 = 0.8\)
Population of AD on the basis of the reported cases of cancer in 2006 (in thousands) = \(\frac{7100}{0.8}\)
\(= 875000\)
The correct option is (D): None of these
Which country has reported the second highest number of cancer cases to WHO during 2006?
- N
- AG
- F
- U
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Number of cases reported in 2006:
From top to bottom:
AG = 21,861
N = 1862
F = 1365
U = 896
So, N has second highest number of cases reported in 2006.
The correct option is (A): N
The countries which have reported less than 2000 cases both the 2006 and early 2007 are
- M, J and P
- V,AJ and W
- W, M and T
- M, T and AJ
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Option A:
J and P have cases higher than 2000.
Option B:
A and J have higher than 2000.
Option C:
M has higher.
Option D:
All have cases lower than 2000.
The correct option is (D): M, T and AJ

III. The population of R is 664,000 in 2006.
IV. P reported more than 20,000 cases of cancer in early 2007.
I. The reported cancer cases of M, Wand AJ as compared to their population are negligible.
II. The 2006 rate is highest for P though the reported cases are only 4700.
III. The population of R is 664,000 in 2006.
IV. P reported more than 20,000 cases of cancer in early 2007.
- I, II and III
- II and III
- I and II
- I, II and IV
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
1) The reported cancer cases of M, Wand AJ as compare to their population are negligible as it is 0.
2) The 2006 rate is highest for P though the reported cases are only 4700. True from the table.
3) Population of R = \(\frac{337}{5} \times10000 = 674000\)
4) P reported only 11 cases.
So, option C is correct.
The correct option is (C): I and II

W: The magnitudes of TRU's and MPU's net change in enrolment between 2014 and 2021 are the closest among any two universities.
X: LTU had the same enrolment in consecutive years at least twice between 2014 and 2021.
Y: The increase in JSU's enrolment from 2015 to 2019 is about 50% of TRU's total enrolment in 2020.
Z: The enrolment in one of LTU and PKU had a steady decline between 2014 and 2021, while the enrolment in the other had no decline between any two consecutive years in the same period. - Three different finance companies declare fixed annual rate of interest on the amount invested with them by investors.
