[Data Interpretation-3] Calculation Techniques

In this article you will learn some calculation techniques to solve questions quickly, which may look difficult to solve in examination due to lot of calculation.I suggest you to read my previous two articles on DI first and then read this article:


Let us take an Example:

Below Pi-Graphs represent Sales Revenue of a Company XYZ in three segments: Scooter, Motorcycle, and Three Wheeler for year 2012 and 2013.





Based on Graphs above solve Below Questions.

Question 1: By how much percentage sales revenue of Scooter has increased in 2013 w.r.t. 2012.

      a)    27%             B)30.4%         c) 35%           d) 41%

Solution:

Normal Procedure:

STEP-1 Sales Revenue of Scooter in 2012 = 29% of 79311 = 23000.19 ~ 23000

Sales Revenue of Scooter in 2013 = 34% of 88244 = 30002.96 ~ 30003

(Obviously getting above two values requires lot of Calculation)

STEP-2 % increase in Sales Revenue of scooter

= (Sales Revenue In 2013 – Sales revenue in 2012)*100/ Sales revenue in 2012

= (30003 – 23000) * 100 / 23000 = 30.44 %

                                          OR

Revenue has become 30003 from 23000 so we can also use our M.F. method to calculate % increase.

M.F. = Final Value/ Initial Value = 30003/23000 = 30000/23000 = 30/23 = 1.304

So Percentage Increase = (1.304 -1) *100 = 30.4%

Note: Here Calculation of Step 1 is time consuming. Let us see how we can solve this question quickly.

Alternate Approach:

Do not calculate Step 1

Directly Write:

M.F. = Final Value / Initial Value = 34% of 88244 / 29% of 79311

                                                    = (34/29) * 882/793           (Approximation)
34/29 === > 35/30 = 1.17

882/793 == > 890/800 = 1.11    (Using Division Technique)       



M.F. = 1.17 X 1.11 ~ 1.298 ~ 1.3      [ For Quick Calculation 1.11 = 1+0.1+0.01
                                                   => 1.17 x 1.11 = 1.17 + .117 + 0.0117 = 1.2987 ]

 If M.F. is 1.3 == > % increase will be 30%    Hence option B is correct                                       

Question 2: By how much percentage sales revenue of Motorcycle has changed in 2013 w.r.t. 2012.

      a)    4.7% decrease         B) 4.7% increase         c) 9.4% increase           d) 9.4% decrease

Solution:

M.F. = Final Value/ Initial Value = 48% of 88244 / 56% of 79311

                                                  = (48/56) * (882/793)

                                                  = 6/7 * 882/793

                                                  = 0.86 * 1.1

                                                  = 0.946

Percentage Decrease = (1 – M.F.) * 100 = (1-0.946) *100 = 5.4%

(We got 5.4% since we have used lot of approximation.)

Closest option is A) hence option A is correct.

Question 3: By how much percentage sales revenue of Three Wheeler has increased in 2013 w.r.t. 2012.

       a)    29.5%         B) 33.5%         c) 37.5%           d) 41.5%

Solution:

M.F. = Final Value/ Initial Value = 18% of 88244 / 15% of 79311

                                                  = (18/15) * (882/793)

                                                  = 1.2*1.1

                                                  = 1.32

Percentage Increase = (M.F.-1) * 100 = (1.32-1) *100 = 32%

Closest option is B. Hence option B is correct.

ibps
banks depending upon the needs of the bank. They may be placed at counters like that of savings, deposit, current deposit, term deposit, retail loans, cash credit, agricultural loans, credit cards, government business, cash receipt or payment etc. So a bank Clerk plays an important role in the bank.

The selection is made through the system of examination. The candidates who meet the eligibility criteria are able to appear in a written examination. This written examination is conduct by the IBPS (Institute of Banking Personnel Selection).

General Awareness 40 Marks

To successfully compete through this examination, it is necessary for the job seekers to work hard and work smart too. They must be well versed in the subjects which are asked in the examination. They must also solve the previous year question papers with speed and accuracy.

Important Tips

1. Time Management with Speed
In IBPS Bank Exam, the candidate needs to save time and has to be accurate too. Hence, he/she should be able to understand the problems well and should also create short cuts to answer the questions to which they come across. They also need to practice regularly with different sets of papers.


2. Improve your Knowledge

Then only, candidates will be able to pass IBPS Bank Exam easily in first attempt. We feel, a candidate should devote atleast 3-4 hours daily, consistently for 2-3 months, to get Good success in IBPS exams. These 3-4 hours can be any time, evening, morning or afternoon. But If your’e not able to Spend those hours, at least you have to Spend 2 Hours a Day for 1-2 Months.
