ANSWERS
Solutions (1-3)
1. (3)
Required probability = (3C3 + 6C3)/13C3 = 21/286

2. (1)
Required probability = 6C2/13C2 = 5/26

3. (5)
Required probability = 1 – Probability that none is yellow
= 1 - 9C3/13C3 = 101/143

Solutions (4-5)
4. (4)
Required number of ways =  4C3 * 8C2 + 4C4 * 8C1 = 120

5. (1)
Required number of ways = 4C2 * 5C3 = 60

Solutions
6. (3)
Required ratio = 18%of256000/10% of 32000  = 72 : 5

7. (3)
Required percentage = (15 + 10)/20 * 100 = 125%

8. (2)
Required difference = (16 – 10)% of 32000 = 1920

9. (3)
The difference between number of students selected to number of students appeared in entrance exam in 2007
= 12 % of 256000 – 10% of 32000 = 27520
Similarly calculating for all years, the maximum difference will be for 2010.

10. (4)
Required percentage = 32000/256000 * 100 = 12.5%

11. (1)
Required percentage = 14% of 32000/ 15% of 256000 * 100  = 11.67

12. (5)
Required number = (20 + 16)% of 32000 = 11520
