Question :
Darjeeling gets tourists from two countries A and B. Percentage-wise distribution of the influx of tourists is given below for the first six months of the year:
| Total number of tourists = 60000 | |
| Month | Ratio(A : B) |
| Jan | 5 : 7 |
| Feb | 6 : 7 |
| Mar | 3 : 2 |
| April | 8 : 7 |
| May | 4 : 5 |
| June | 3 : 4 |
Find the ratio of tourists from country A coming in during March and April.
Option 1: 4 : 7
Option 2: 3 : 7
Option 3: 7 : 10
Option 4: 9 : 10
Correct Answer: 9 : 10
Solution :
From the pie chart,
In March, the total number of tourists is 20% of 60000, which is 12000.
The ratio of tourists from country A to country B is 3 : 2.
So, the number of tourists from country A in March is $\frac{3}{5}$ × 12000 = 7200.
In April, the total number of tourists is 25% of 60000, which is 15000.
The ratio of tourists from country A to country B is 8 : 7.
So, the number of tourists from country A in April is $\frac{8}{15}$ × 15000 = 8000.
Therefore, the ratio of tourists from country A coming in during March and April is 7200 : 8000 = 9 : 10.
Hence, the correct answer is 9 : 10.
