What percentage of cities located within 10°E and 40°E (20° East and 40° East) lie in the Southern Hemisphere?
Show Hint
- 15%
- 20%
- 25%
- 30%
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
- Pretoria (South Africa, not listed in the table but inferred from data)
There are 5 cities listed in this range. Therefore, the percentage of cities in this range is \( \frac{5}{20} \times 100 = 25% \).
The number of cities whose names begin with a consonant and are in the Northern Hemisphere in the table
Show Hint
- exceeds the number of cities whose names begin with a consonant and are in the Southern Hemisphere by 1.
- exceeds the number of cities whose names begin with a consonant and are in the Southern Hemisphere by 2.
- is less than the number of cities whose names begin with a consonant and are in the east of the meridian by 1.
- is less than the number of countries whose names begin with a consonant and are in the east of the meridian by 3.
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The ratio of the number of countries whose name starts with vowels and located in the southern hemisphere, to the number of countries, the name of whose capital cities starts with a vowel in the table above is
Show Hint
- 3 : 2
- 3 : 3
- 3 : 1
- 4 : 3
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
- Ecuador
- India
The capitals whose names start with a vowel are:
- Ottawa
- Accra
- Ireland (Dublin)
Thus, the ratio is \( \frac{3}{2} \).

A train travels from Station A to Station E, passing through stations B, C, and D, in that order. The train has a seating capacity of 200. A ticket may be booked from any station to any other station ahead on the route, but not to any earlier station. A ticket from one station to another reserves one seat on every intermediate segment of the route. For example, a ticket from B to E reserves a seat in the intermediate segments B– C, C– D, and D–E. The occupancy factor for a segment is the total number of seats reserved in the segment as a percentage of the seating capacity. The total number of seats reserved for any segment cannot exceed 200. The following information is known. 1. Segment C– D had an occupancy factor of 952. Exactly 40 tickets were booked from B to C and 30 tickets were booked from B to E. 3. Among the seats reserved on segment D– E, exactly four-sevenths were from stations before C. 4. The number of tickets booked from A to C was equal to that booked from A to E, and it was higher than that from B to E. 5. No tickets were booked from A to B, from B to D and from D to E. 6. The number of tickets booked for any segment was a multiple of 10.
