Data Interpretation
Direction (6 – 10): Study the following data carefully and answer the questions:
Fare of cab is calculated on the basis on fuel charge, distance covered (km) and time taken (hours) in the journey. Formula to calculate fare of the cab is given below:
Fare of the cab = Fuel charges + 10 * Distance covered + 20 * Time taken – Rebate
Fuel charges = 160% of (Distance covered * Time taken)
Pie charts given below shows the distribution (degree) of total distance covered (km) and per cent distribution of speed (km/h) of the cab for five different persons P, Q, R, S and T respectively.
Sum of the first pie chart and second pie chart is 90 km and 200 km/h respectively.

Answers :
Directions (1-5) :
1) Answer: b)
According to the question:
[D/(35 – 10)] + [D/(35 + 10)] = 4.2(D/25) + (D/45) = 4.2
9D + 5D = 4.2 * 225
14D = 945
D = 67.5
Total time taken by boat B on Wednesday to cover ‘D + 12.5’ km in upstream
= [(67.5 + 12.5)/(25 – 15)] = 80/10 = 8 hours
2) Answer: b)
According to the question:
[(D + 15)/(40 – 5)] = [2D/(35 + 20)](D + 15)/35 = 2D/55
11(D + 15) = 7 * 2D
11D + 165 = 14D
3D = 165
D = 55
Total time taken by boat D on Tuesday to go ‘D’ km upstream and comes back to the original point = [55/(45 – 5)] + [55/(45 + 5)] = (55/40) + (55/50)
= 1.375 + 1.1 = 2.475 hours
3) Answer: d)
According to the question:
2t * (40 + 10) = (t + 11.4) * (25 – 20)
100t = 5t + 57
95t = 57
t = 0.6
Total distance travelled by boat C on Monday in upstream in ‘t + 1.2’ hours
= (0.6 + 1.2) * (35 – 10) = 45 km
4) Answer: a)
According to the question:
(30 – 10) * (t + 1) = (30 + 15) * t
20t + 20 = 45t
25t = 20
t = 0.8
D = (30 + 15) * t = 36 km
Actual time taken by boat B to cover 36 km in upstream on Tuesday
= 36/(25 – 5) = 1.8 hours
Let decreased speed of boat B in still water = ‘x’ km/h
According to the question:
36/(x – 5) = 1.8 + (36/60)
36/(x – 5) = 2.4
36 = 2.4x – 12
2.4x = 48
x = 20
Required percent = [(25 – 20)/25] * 100 = 20%
5) Answer: c)
Changed downstream speed of boat C on Tuesday = (80% of 35) + 5
= 28 + 5 = 33 km/h
Changed upstream speed of boat D on Wednesday = (120% of 45) –15
= 54 – 15 = 39 km/h
According to the question:
[D/33]: [(D + 12)/39] = 10: 1139D/33(D + 12) = 10/11
39D = 30D + 360
9D = 360
D = 40
Directions (6 – 10):
Distance covered by P = 120 * (75/360) = 25 km
Speed of person P = 20% of 200 = 40 km/h
Time taken by person P = 25/40 = 0.625 hours
Distance covered by Q = 120 * (105/360) = 35 km
Speed of person Q = 17.5% of 200 = 35 km/h
Time taken by person Q = 35/35 = 1 hour
Distance covered by R = 120 * (60/360) = 20 km
Speed of person R = 25% of 200 = 50 km/h
Time taken by person R = 20/50 = 0.4 hours
Distance covered by S = 120 * (30/360) = 10 km
Speed of person S = 12.5% of 200 = 25 km/h
Time taken by person S = 10/25 = 0.4 hours
Distance covered by T = 120 * (90/360) = 30 km
Speed of person T = 25% of 200 = 50 km/h
Time taken by person T = 30/50 = 0.6 hours
6) Answer: a)
Fuel charges = 160% of 25 * 0.625 = Rs.25
Rebate = 2 * (25 * 0.625) = Rs.31.25
Total fare = 25 + 10 * 25 + 20 * 0.625 – 31.25
= 25 + 250 + 12.5 – 31.25
= Rs.256.25
7) Answer: b)
Fuel charge = 160% of (35 * 1) = Rs.56
Let amount of toll tax = ‘x’
Rebate = (75% of x + 16) = (0.75x + 16)
Total fare = 56 + 10 * 35 + 20 * 1 – (0.75x + 16) = 350
56 + 350 + 20 – 350 – 16 = 0.75x
0.75x = 60
x = 80
Total amount of toll tax paid = Rs.80
8) Answer: d)
Fuel charges = 160% of (20 * 0.4) = Rs.12.8
Rebate = (x – 5.6)
Total fare = 12.8 + 10 * 20 + 20 * 0.4 – (x – 5.6) = (x2 + 16)
220.8 – x + 5.2 = x2 + 16
x2 + x – 210 = 0
x = 14 and -15
Rebate on cab fare = x – 5.2 = Rs.8.8
Required difference = 12.8 – 8.8 = Rs.4
9) Answer: c)
Fuel charges = 160% of (10 * 0.4) = Rs.6.4
Rebate = x2 + 3x – 18
Total fare = 6.4 + 10 * 10 + 20 * 0.4 – (x2 + 3x – 6) = 102.4
120.4 – x2 – 3x = 102.4
x2 + 3x – 18 = 0
x = 3 and -6
Correct fuel charge = (2x + 0.4)
10) Answer: b)
Fuel charges = 160% of (30 * 0.6) = Rs.28.8
Rebate = 60% of Distance covered + 125% of fuel charges
= 60% of 30 + 125% of 28.8
= 18 + 36
= Rs.54
Total fare = 28.8 + 10 * 30 + 20 * 0.6 – 54
= 28.8 + 300 + 12 – 54
= Rs.286.8
