Data Interpretation Questions Quiz-13
Directions:(1-5) Answer the questions based on the information given below.
The bar graph below provides the information about the number of hours taken by pipes P, Q, R, S and T to empty pool M and pool N while working individually.
1.Pipes Q, R and S are opened alternately for an hour with pipe Q starting first and then pipe R and then pipe S. If they continue being opened in this pattern, then in how many hours would pool N be completely empty?
A 1391/15 hours
B 2187/40 hours
C 276/5 hours
D 1261/60 hours
E None of the above
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – B 2187/40 hours
Portion of pool N emptied in 1st 3 hours = 1/45 + 1/50 + 1/80 = (80 + 72 + 45)/3600 = 197/3600
So, portion of pool N emptied in 1st 54 hours = 18 × (197/3600) = 3546/3600
Portion of pool N remaining to be emptied = 1 – (3546/3600) = 54/3600 = 3/200
Time taken by Pipe Q alone to empty the remaining portion of pool N = (3/200)/(1/45) = 27/40 hours
So, total number of hours taken to empty pool N = 54 + (27/40) = 2187/40 hours
2.If pipes P and Q, both work at half of their original efficiencies and pipe R works at twice its original efficiency, then in how many hours would pool M be completely emptied on opening pipes P, Q and R together?
A 1200/119 hours
B 508/31 hours
C 105/13 hours
D 637/125 hours
E None of these
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – A.1200/119 hours
Portion of pool M emptied by pipe P in one hour = 0.5 × (1/40) = 1/80
Portion of pool M emptied by pipe Q in one hour = 0.5 × (1/25) = 1/50
Portion of pool M emptied by pipe R in one hour = 2 × (1/30) = 1/15
Required time taken to empty pool M = 1/ (1/80 + 1/50 + 1/15) = 1/ ((15 + 24 + 80)/1200)
= 1200/119 hours
3.What is the difference between the time taken by pipe R and T together to empty pool M and the time taken by pipe R and T together to empty pool N?
A 253/15 hours
B 265/18 hours
C 64/3 hours
D 182/17 hours
E None of the above
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – B 265/18 hours
Portion of pool M emptied by pipe R and T together in one hour = 1/30 + 1/10 = 4/30 = 2/15
So, time taken by pipe R and T together to empty the pool M = 1/ (2/15) = 15/2 hours
Portion of pool N emptied by pipe R and T together in one hour = 1/50 + 1/40 = 9/200
So, time taken by pipe R and T together to empty the pool N = 1/ (9/200) = 200/9 hours
Required difference = 200/9 – 15/2 = 265/18 hours
4.Find the ratio of the number of hours taken by pipe S and T together to empty pool N to the number of hours taken by pipe Q and S together to empty pool M.
A 34:19
B 41:13
C 27:16
D 32:15
E None of the Above
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – D.32:15
Number of hours taken by pipe S and T together to empty pool N = 1/(1/80 + 1/40) = 1/(3/80) 80/3 hours
Number of hours taken by pipe Q and S together to empty pool M = 1/(1/25 + 1/25) = 1/(2/25) = 25/2 hours
Required ratio = 80/3: 25/2 = 32: 15
5.If pipes P, Q, R and S are working together to empty pool M and pipes Q, R, S and T are working together to empty pool N, then what is the difference between the fraction of pool M and the fraction of pool N emptied in 3 hours?
A 2/7
B 407/911
C 103/511
D 211/1200
E None of the above
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – D 211/1200
Portion of pool M emptied by pipes P, Q, R and S together in one hour = 1/40 + 1/25 + 1/30 + 1/25 = (15 + 24 + 20 + 24)/600 = 83/600
Portion of pool M emptied in 3 hours = 3 × (83/600) = 83/200
Portion of pool N emptied by pipes Q, R, S and T together in one hour = 1/45 + 1/50 + 1/80 + 1/40 = (80 + 72 +
45 + 90)/3600 = 287/3600
Portion of pool N emptied in 3 hours = 3 × (287/3600) = 287/1200

6.What is the ratio of the quantity of oil in tank Q to the quantity of oil in tank S?
A 17:13
B 513:404
C 204:199
D 385:144
E None of these
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – D.385:144
Volume of tank Q = (22/7) × 72 × 10 = 1540 m3
Volume of tank S = (22/7) × 42 × 14 = 704 m3
Quantity of oil in tank Q = 0.55 × 1540 = 847 m3
Quantity of oil in tank S = 0.45 × 704 = 316.8 m3
Required ratio = 847: 316.8 = 385: 144
7.The total capacity of tanks Q and T combined is approximately what percentage of the total capacity of the other 3 tanks combined?
8.If 15% of the mixture is taken out from each of the tanks R and T, then find the total amount of water taken out from both the tanks. [Note: 1m3 = 1000 litres]
A 77880 litres
B 74520 litres
C 72600 litres
D 64400 litres
E None of these
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – A.77880 litres
Volume of tank R = (22/7) × 22 × 28 = 352 m3
Volume of tank T = (22/7) × 32 × 21 = 594 m3
Required total quantity of water taken out = 0.15 × 0.8 × 352 + 0.15 × 0.4 × 594
= 42.24 + 35.64 = 77.88 m3
= 77.88 × 1000 = 77880 litres
9.The total quantity of water in tanks P and S combined is what percentage less than the total quantity of oil in tanks S and T combined?
A 4.25%
B 5.62%
C 1.31%
D 9.67%
E 8.01%
Show Correct Answers
Correct Answer – C.1.31%
Volume of tank P = (22/7) × 32 × 14 = 396 m3
Volume of tank S = (22/7) × 42 × 14 = 704 m3
Volume of tank T = (22/7) × 32 × 21 = 594 m3
Total quantity of water in tanks P and S combined = (1 – 0.3) × 396 + (1 – 0.45) × 704 = 664.4 m3
Total quantity of oil in tanks S and T combined = 0.45 × 704 + 0.6 × 594 = 673.2 m3
