If the tourist traffic from India to the USA is 165000 more than that to the UK, then what is the difference between the Indian overseas tourist traffic in the age group 40 to 50 years and that in 30 to 40 years?

A72500
B27500 ✓ Correct
C55000
D42000
Correct answer: (B) 27500
Explanation

The difference is 27500, so that is the answer.

The USA takes 40 percent and the UK 10 percent of the traffic.

Their gap of 30 percent equals 165000, so the total traffic is 55 lakh.

The 40 to 50 age group is 20 percent and the 30 to 40 group is 15 percent.

Their difference is 5 percent of 55 lakh.

5 percent of 55 lakh is 27500.
