• for one year there are 52 weeks
  among them 34 weeks are completed then remaining weeks are 18.
  for 34 weeks recruiter processed 8 applicants per week so 34*8=272.
  they said last year 524 applicants are processed so to complete that target we need 252 applications..
  252/18=14.
  so, we require 14 weeks to equal last year performance.

• d) 14
  Application=(524-(34*8))/18=14
• 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• 8*34+18*x=524
  X=14

• In 1 week= 8 applicant
  In 34 week=34*8=272 applicant
  Now, Remaining WEEKS=52-34=18, Remaining applicant = 524-272=252
  therefore number of applicant /week must be recruit =252/18=14 ->(d) is the answer

• Total applications = 524
  Average of applicants per week = 8
  Therefore, for first 34 weeks = 34*8 = 272 applicants
  Total weeks in a year = 52
  Therefore, Remaining weeks = 52 - 34 = 18
  Remaining applicants = total applicants - number of applicants selected in the first 34 weeks = 524 - 272 = 252 applicants
  Number of applicants the recruiter process = Remaining applicants / remaining weeks = 252 / 18 = 14 applicants per week
