Data Interpretation Questions Quiz-12
Directions:(1-5)Answer the questions based on the information given below.
The given line graph provides information about the number of nuts and bolts produced by a manufacturing company on five different days of a week and the radar graph provides information about the percentage of items produced on different days which were defective.
Total number of items produced in a day = Number of nuts produced in a day + Number of bolts produced in a day
Total number of items produced = Total number of defective items produced + Total number of non – defective items produced

Let the number of defective nuts produced on Tuesday and Wednesday be ‘5x’ and ‘8x’ respectively.
As the number of defective bolts produced on Tuesday and the number of defective bolts produced on Wednesday is same, so
8x – 5x = 360 – 270
3x = 90
x = 90/3 = 30
So, number of defective nuts produced on Tuesday = 5 × 30 = 150
Therefore, number of non-defective nuts produced on Tuesday = 800 – 150 = 650

Directions:(6-10) Answer the questions based on the information given below.
The bar graph given below provides information about the time taken (in hours) by five different pipes to fill the empty tank and to empty the full tank.
6.Pipes A and C are connected to the inlet point of the tank. Find the time taken by these pipes to fill the empty tank together.
A 680/29 hours
B 24 hours
C 144/7 hours
D 25 hours
E 740/29 hours
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – C.144/7 hours
Let the capacity of the tank = 144 litres (LCM of 48 and 36)
Quantity of water filled by pipe A in one hours = 144 / 48 = 3 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe C in one hours = 144 / 36 = 4 litres
Quantity of water filled in tank if all the pipes are connected together = 3 + 4 = 7 litres
Time taken to fill the empty tank = 144/7 hours
7.What is the time taken by pipes B and D together to empty the full tank if both the pipes are outlet pipes?
A 15 hours
B 1800/97 hours
C 16 hours
D 3840/239 hours
E None of these
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – B. 1800/97 hours
Let the capacity of the tank = 1800 litres (LCM of 25 and 72)
Quantity of water taken out by pipe B in one hour = 1800 / 25 = 72 litres
Quantity of water taken out by pipe D in one hour = 1800 / 72 = 25 litres
Quantity of water taken out by pipes B and D together in one hour = 72 + 25 = 97 litres
Time taken to empty the full tank = 1800 / 97 hours
8.Pipes B, D and E are connected to the inlet point of the tank. All the three pipes are opened but after 5 hours, pipe B is closed and 4 hours before the tank is filled, pipe E is also closed. Find the time taken to fill the empty tank.
A 12 hours
B 16 hours
C 13 hours
D 14 hours
E 15 hours
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – D. 14 hours
Let the capacity of the tank = 120 litres (LCM of 30, 24 and 40)
Quantity of water filled by pipe B in one hour = 120 / 30 = 4 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe D in one hour = 120 / 24 = 5 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe E in one hour = 120 / 40 = 3 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipes B, D and E in five hours = (4 + 5 + 3) × 5 = 60 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe D alone in four hours = 5 × 4 = 20 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe D and E = 120 – 60 – 20 = 40 litres
Time taken by pipe D and E together to fill this 40 litres = 40 / (5 + 3) = 5 hours
So total time taken to fill the empty tank = 5 + 4 + 5 = 14 hours
9.Pipes C and D are connected to the inlet point of the tank and efficiency of pipes C and D are increased by 50%. Now calculate the time taken by these two pipes to fill the empty tank.
A 48/5 hours
B 23/11 hours
C 9/4 hours
D 41/19 hours
E None of these
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – A. 48/5 hours
Let the capacity of tank = 72 litres (LCM of 36 and 24)
Quantity of water filled by pipe C in one hour = 72 / 36 = 2 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe C in one hour after increased efficiency = 2 × 1.50 = 3 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe D in one hour = 72 / 24 = 3 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe D in one hour after increased efficiency = 3 × 1.50 = 4.5 litres
Quantity of water filled by three pipes in one hour = 3 + 4.5 = 7.5 litres
Time taken to fill the empty tank = 72 / 7.5 = 48/5 hours
10.Pipes A, B, C, D and E are connected to the tank. Out of these pipes, pipe A, B and D are inlet pipes whereas pipes C and E are outlet pipes. Find the time taken to fill the empty tank.
A 16 hours
B 18 hours
C 20 hours
D 22 hours
E None of these
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – C. 20 hours
Let the capacity of the tank = 240 litres (LCM of 48, 30, 24, 80, 30)
Quantity of water filled by pipe A in one hour = 240 / 48 = 5 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe B in one hour = 240 / 30 = 8 litres
Quantity of water taken out by pipe C in one hour = 240 / 80 = 3 litres
Quantity of water filled by pipe D in one hour = 240 / 24 = 10 litres
Quantity of water taken out by pipe E in one hour = 240 / 30 = 8 litres
Quantity of water filled by these five pipes in one hour = 5 + 8 – 3 + 10 – 8 = 12 litres
