Answers with Explanation !!!!!!!!!

"Percentage"

Percentage

The term per cent mean 'for every hundred'.
"A per cent is a fraction whose denominator is 100 and the numerator of the fraction is called the rate per cent." Per cent is denoted by the sign '%'.

Concept to Caluculate Per cent

If we have to find y% of x, then
y% of x=(x*y)/100

Conversion of Per Cent into Fraction

Expression per cent (x%) into fraction.
Required fraction=x/100

Conversion of fraction into Percentage

Expressing a fraction (x/y) in per cent.
Required percentage=(x/y)*100)%

Expressing One Quanity as a Per Cent with Respect to Other

To express a quantity as a per cent with respect to other quantity following formula is used.
(The quantity to be expressed in per cent)/ (2nd quantity (in respect of which the per cent has to be obtained))X100%

Important Concept and Tricks

1. If x% of A is equal to y% of B, then
z% of A=(yz/x)% of B

2. When a number x is increased or decreased by y%, then the new number will be
(100+y)*x/100

3. When the value of an object is first changed (increased ) by a% and then changed (increased ) by b%,then
Net effect=[a+b +ab/100]%

4. Suppose in an examination, x% of total number of students failed in subject A and y% of total number of students failed in subject B and z% failed
in both the suject. Then,
(i) Percentage of students who passed in both the subjects=[100-(x+y-z)]%
(ii) Percentage of students who failed in either subject=(x+y-z)%

5. If due to r% decrease in the price of an item, a person can buy A kg more in Rs.x, then
Actual price of that item= Rs (rx)/((100-r)A) Per kg

Example :If due to 10% decrease in the price of sugar ,Ram can buy 5 kg more sugar in Rs 100 , then find the actual Price of sugar ?

solution : Here r = 10 % ,x = 100 and A = 5 kg
Actual price of sugar = 10*100/((100-10 )*5) = Rs. 2(2/9)

6.If the population of a town is P and it increases at the rate of R% per annum, then
(i) Population after n yr= P(1+r/100)^n
(ii) Population, n yr ago=P/(1+r/100)^n

7. If the present population of a city is P and there is a increment of R1%, R2% ,R3% in first, second and third year respectively, then

Population of city after 3 yr=P(1+R1/100)(1+R2/100)(1+R3/100)

Example : Population of a city in 20004 was 1000000. If in 2005 there is an increment of 15 % , in 2006 there is a decrement of 35 % and in 2007 there is an increment of 45 %, then find the population of city at the end of the year 2007.

solution : Required population = P (1 + R1/100)(1 - R2/100)(1 + R3/100)

= P (1 + 15/100)(1 - 35/100)(1 + 45/100)
= 1083875

Data Analysis & Interpretation

Data Analysis & Interpretation

Data Interpretation has always played a great role in selection for SBI PO. In Phase One exam also SBI has asked for Data Interpretation Questions in Quantitative Sections. SBI Online Phase 2 Exams will be having a complete 60 marks section devoted to Data Interpretation.

Many Student face difficulty in tackling with DI section while some others are very efficient in Data Interpretation.

The best part of Data Interpretation is that this section can be mastered in very less time compared to other subjects such as Quantitative Section and English or General Awareness.

Now Let us come to the most Important Thing.

" Demystifying Data Interpretation ”

Look anyone can solve DI question, if there is no time limit given. But in Exam we are required to solve the question in limited Time.

Few Necessary Skills which are required for Mastering DI are Listed as below:

1.Read the data very carefully. Even the minutest word must not be overlooked since many a times even single word/group of words could become critical.

2.If there are more than one graphs/charts/tables, understand the relationship between them clearly before you proceed to solve the questioned asked.

3.Answer only the questions asked. Do not answer/calculate things which have not been asked for.

4.Be careful to use proper units and beware of charts and tables with non-uniform units.

5.Avoid simple calculation mistake and revise your answer at least once before moving to next question.

Tips to reduce calculation time

In DI most of the questions are usually based on percentage increase and decrease, ratios and averages. A simple trick for solving data interpretation problems quickly is:

Learn tables till 20.
learn fractions till 1/20 to improve your speed
Waste little time in finding averages: Here if you have to find averages for sales in branches B1 to B6 for the year 2014, use this shortcut:

What you usually do: [80+75+95+85+75+70]/6

Instead: 70 + [10+5+25+15+5]/6=70+ [60/6]= 80

With this technique, you will reduce calculation time and are also bound to make fewer mistakes.

Types of Data Analysis & Interpretation

1. Tabular representation

2. Bar charts

3. Line Graphs

4. Pie charts

5. Caselets

6. Spider charts

7. Missing DI

8. Miscellaneous charts.

We will now go on and analyse each of the types of charts.

Concept and Tricks With Quiz on Average

Average
An average or more accurately an arithmetic mean is, in crude terms, the sum of n different data divided by n.

Averages of a group is defined as the ratio of sum of all the items in the group to the number of items in the group.

Average = (Sum of all items in the group)/ Number of items in the group

Now, sum of all items can be ‘the sum of number of quantities like apple, people etc’ or ‘sum of values of the item like 10 coins of 2Rs each etc’.

Some Important Concepts:

1.Average =total of data/No.of data

2.If the value of each item is increase by the same value a, then the average of the group or items will also increase by a.

3.If the value of each item is decreased by the same value a, then the aveage of the group of items will also decrease by a.

4.If the value of each item is multiplied by the same value a, then the average of the group or items will also get multiplied by a.

5.If the value of each item is multiplied by the same value a, then the average of the group or items will also get divided by a.

6.If we know only the average of the two groups individually, we cannot find out the average of the combined group of items.

7.Average of n natural no's=(n+1)/2

8.Average of even No'=(n+1)

9.Average of odd No'= n

10.General Formula=(1st number +Last number)/2

(a)26
(b)25.5
(c)27
(d)25
(e)none of these

Answers with Explanation:

1. (d) Let No. of passed candidates are x

So, x * 39 + (120 – x) 15= 120 * 35

x = 100

2.(a) Total increase = 8 * 2 = 16 years

So, total age of two women = 35 + 45 +16= 96

Average age of two women=96/2=48 years

3(d) Total decrease = 20 * 2 = 40 month

= 3 years 4 month

So, age of new boy = 18 years – 3 years 4 month

= 14 years 8 month

4.(a) Average speed = total distance / total time

LCM = 3, 4 = 12

Average speed = 12 / (1/3*12*1/25 + ¼ * 12*1/30 +5/50)

= 12/ (4/25 + 3/30+ 5/30

= 150*12/54 = 33.333 kmph

5.(e) Let no. of non- officers be x

15 * 460 + x * 110 = (x + 15) 120

x = 510

6.(a) Let average expenditure per head be = x

So, (35 + 7) (x -1) – 35 x = 42

42 (x -1) – 35x = 42

X =12

Original expenditure of mess = 12 * 35 = 420

7.A + B + C = 3 *84 = 252

A + B + C + D = 4 * 80 = 320 ---- (i)

So, D = 68& E = 68 + 3 = 71

B + C + D +E = 79 * 4 = 316 --- (ii)

From Eq. (i) & (ii)

A-E = 320 – 316 = 4

A = E +4 = 71 + 4 = 75

8.(b) Let the total no. of candidates = x

So, (50x-100 (90-60)) / x = 45

x = 600

9.(c) 2, 4, 6, ………… 100

Average = (1st No. + Last No.) /2 = (2+100)/2 = 51

10.(c) Total Sum of 8 nos. = 20 * 8 = 160

Sum of 1st two nos. = 2 * 15.5 = 31

Sum of next three nos. = 3 * 64/3 = 64

Let 6th no. be x

31 + 64 + x + (x+4) + (x+7) = 160

x = 18

8th no. = 18 + 7 = 25

కెరీర్‌లో తొలి అడుగులు తడబడకుండా

జీవితంలో మర్చిపోలేని సందర్భాల్లో కెరీర్‌ ప్రారంభం ఒకటి. ఎన్నో ఆశలు, మరెన్నో లక్ష్యాలతో కెరీర్‌లో తొలి ప్రయాణం ప్రారంభమవుతుంది. జాబ్‌ వచ్చిన ఉత్సాహం, బాధ్యతయుతమైన ప్రొఫెషనల్‌ జీవితం ప్రారంభిస్తున్నామనే ఆనందం వెరసి కెరీర్‌ తొలి దశను అసక్తికరంగా మారుస్తుంది. భావి జీవితంలో చేరుకునే ఉన్నత శిఖరాలకు ఈ దశ పునాదిగా నిలుస్తుంది. ఇక్కడ అడుగులు తడబడితే కెరీర్‌ జర్నీ రాంగ్‌ రూట్‌లోకి వెళుతుంది. అప్పుడే జాబ్‌లో చేరిన యంగ్‌ ప్రొఫెషనల్స్‌ కెరీర్‌ను రైట్‌ ట్రాక్‌లో నడిపించాలంటే నేర్చుకోవాల్సిన అంశాలు ఎన్నో ఉంటాయి. వీటిని ఆచరించినప్పుడే కెరీర్‌ జర్నీ సక్సెస్‌ఫుల్‌గా డెస్టినేషన్‌ను చేరుకుంటుంది. అందుకు ఏమి చేయాలో చుద్దాం...

ప్రొఫెషనల్‌ లైఫ్‌ కాలేజ్‌ లైఫ్‌ రెండూ భిన్నం. కంపెనీ కల్చర్‌లో సింక్‌ అవుతూ ఫైల్స్‌, ఎగ్జిక్యూషన్‌, ప్రాజెక్ట్స్‌, మీటింగ్స్‌ వంటి ప్రొఫెషనల్‌ బాధ్యతలను నిర్వర్తించాల్సి ఉంటుంది.

విమర్శను స్వీకరించాలి.

కెరీర్‌ తొలినాళ్లలో ప్రశంసలతోపాటు విమర్శలు కూడా రావడం సహజం. అయితే ప్రశంసను ఎలా పాజిటివ్‌గా తీసుకుంటామో విమర్శను కూడా అలాగే స్వీకరించాలి. విమర్శకు సిద్ధంగా లేకపోతే కెరీర్‌ రాంగ్‌ట్రాక్‌లోకి వెళుతుంది. ఎవరూ పనికట్టుకొని విమర్శించరు. ఉద్యోగంలో చేరిన కొత్తలో తెలిసీ తెలియక చేసిన తప్పులను సరిదిద్దే దిశగా మాత్రమే వ్యాఖ్యానిస్తారు. అంతే తప్ప వ్యక్తిగత అంశాలను దృష్టిలో ఉంచుకొని విమర్శ ఉండదు. కాబట్టి దానిని పాజిటివ్‌గా స్వీకరించాలి. తప్పును సరిదిద్దుకొని మెరుగ్గా రాణించడానికి ప్రయత్నించాలి. కెరీర్‌ అనే సుదీర్ఘ ప్రయాణం ఇప్పుడే మొదలైంది. కాబట్టి ఈ జర్నీలో ఎదిగే క్రమంలో ఒదిగి ఉండటం నేర్చుకోవాలి.

పని తీరుతోనే

పని తీరుతో అందరిని ఆకట్టుకునే ప్రయత్నం చేయాలి. ఈ క్రమంలో చేతలే మాట్లాడాలి. నోరు కాదు. సాధ్యమైనంత వరకు కామ్‌గా కూల్‌గా అనవసర విషయాల జోలికి వెళ్లకుండా విధులు నిర్వహించాలి. ఒక్కోసారి సదరు వ్యక్తుల పనితో సంస్థకు మేలు జరిగి ఉండవచ్చు. అయితే దీన్ని మేనేజర్‌ గుర్తించకపోవచ్చు. అంతమాత్రన ప్రతి ఒక్కరి దగ్గర ఇదే విషయాన్ని ప్రస్తావించడం, ఎవరూ సాధించనిది మనం మాత్రమే చేశామనే అహంతో వ్యవహరించకూడదు. శ్రమకు ఫలితం వెంటనే రాకపోయినా .ఎప్పుడో ఒక్కసారి మాత్రం తప్పకుండా వస్తుంది. కాబట్టి ఓపికతో వ్యవహరించాలి. ఒక్కోసారి గుర్తింపు పొందాలనే తొందర్లో తప్పులు చేస్తుంటారు. కప్పిపుచ్చుకునే క్రమంలో మరో తప్పు ఇలా పునరావృతం అవుతుంటాయి. ఈ సందర్భంలో తప్పును ధైర్యంగా ఒప్పుకోవాలి. దీని వల్ల మొదట్లో కొంత వరకు ప్రతికూలత కనిపించినప్పటికీ కెరీర్‌లో ప్రారంభంలోనే తప్పును నిజాయితీగా ఒప్పుకునే గుణం మీపై పాజిటివ్‌ ఇంప్రెషన్‌ను క్రియేట్‌ చేస్తుంది.

భిన్నంగా

విద్యార్థి దశలో చదువు తప్ప ఎటువంటి బాధ్యతలు ఉండవు. అపరిమిత స్వేచ్ఛ ఉంటుంది. ఉద్యోగ జీవితం సరిగ్గా దీనికి భిన్నం. ఉద్యోగిగా బాధ్యతలతోపాటు జవాబుదారీతనంతో వ్యవహరించాలి. విద్యార్థి దశలో అన్నింటికీ టీచర్ల గైడెన్స్‌ ఉంటుంది. ఉద్యోగ జీవితంలో ఇవి పరిమితం. విద్యార్థిలా ప్రతీదానికీ ఇతరులను సంప్రదించడం మంచిది కాదు.

తప్పనిసరైన సమయంలో మాత్రమే తోటి సహచరుల సహకారం తీసుకోవాలి. ఇచ్చిన సమయం/దానికంటే ముందు అందరిలా కాకుండా భిన్నంగా చేయడానికి ప్రయత్నించాలి. అప్పుడే గుర్తింపు వస్తుంది.

అడాప్ట్‌ కల్చర్‌

ప్రతి కంపెనీకి తనదైన సొంత వర్క్‌ కల్చర్‌ ఉంటుంది. సాధ్యమైనంత త్వరగా దాన్ని అడాప్ట్‌ చేసుకోవాలి. పని వేళల నుంచి ఫైల్‌ ఎగ్జిక్యూషన్‌ వరకు కొన్ని నిబంధనలు ఉంటాయి. వర్కింగ్‌ టైమ్‌, ఏం చేయాలి, ఏవిధంగా చేయాలి, సహోద్యోగులతో ఎలా ప్రవర్తించాలి, డ్రెస్‌కోడ్‌ వంటి అంశాల్లో కంపెనీ కల్చర్‌తో సింకవ్వాలి. అన్ని నిబంధనలు రాతపూర్వకంగా ఉండవు. కొన్నిటిపై అనుభవ పూర్వకంగా అవగాహన పెంచుకోవాలి. ఈ విషయంలో సీనియర్ల సలహాలు తీసుకోవచ్చు. సాధ్యమైనంత ఫెయిర్‌గా ఉండాలి.

నో పర్సనల్‌ వర్క్‌

చాలా మంది ఉద్యోగ నిర్వహణ టైమ్‌లో కూడా పర్సనల్‌ విషయాలతో బిజీగా కనిపిస్తుంటారు. వ్యక్తిగత మెయిల్స్‌ చెక్‌ చేస్తూ, సెల్‌ఫోన్‌లో సంభాషిస్తూ/చాట్‌ చేస్తూ బిజీగా ఉంటారు. ఆఫీస్‌ టైంలో ప్రొఫెషనల్‌ లైఫ్‌ను పర్సనల్‌ లైఫ్‌తో లింక్‌ చేయవద్దు. రెంటి మధ్య ఉండే సున్నితమైన పరిమితిని గుర్తించి తదనుగుణంగా వ్యవహరించాలి.

వర్క్‌ ప్లేస్‌లో సహచరులతో స్నేహ భావంతో ఉండటం తప్పులేదు. అంతేకానీ దాన్ని అవకాశంగా తీసుకుని వ్యక్తిగత విషయాలను ప్రస్తావిస్తూ సమయాన్ని వృథా చేయవద్దు.
