The ratio of number of male and female metro card users which are residents of Noida is 6 ∶ 5. Find the value of x, if there are 22500 female users of the metro card in Noida and Delhi has 222750 more users than Ghaziabad. Correct Answer 16%
Suppose total number of metro card users in Delhi - NCR is ‘a’;
12% of the users live in Noida and ratio of number of males and females metro card users which are residents of Noida is 6 ∶ 5;
Since there are 22500 female users of metro card in Noida;
∴ a × 0.12 × 5/11 = 22500
⇒ 0.12a = 49500
⇒ a = 412500
Since Delhi has 222750 more user than Ghaziabad;
∴ Total number of metro card users in Delhi = 0.09 × 412500 + 222750
⇒ 37125 + 222750 = 259875
∴ Percentage of users in Delhi = × 100 = 63%
∴ x = 100 – 63 – 9 – 12 = 16%
