Elitmus Exam Logical Reasoning

2. In 2013,
3,00,000 students passed out, one of every three given eLitmus exam. Out of those top 5% (say, x) got an interview call. In 2014, it is expected that total student will passout will be 40% more than that of 2013 and one of every two student will give the eLitmus exam. Out of those top 5% (say, y) will get an interview call. Find the value of (y - x) ?

Read Solution (Total 5)

question is not complete.....in 2014 for out of 5 every 2 student is giving elitmus exam...so 420000*(2/5)=168000.
no 5% of 168000=8400
now subtract 5000 from 8400= 3400 answer

3,00000 Students in 2013
elitmus exam given by the 1 student from the three
so exam given by the 1,00000 students
then x=5000
in 2014 pass out student 3,00000+3,00000*40/100=42,0000
and exam given by the 420,000/2=210,000 students
so y=10500
then... y-x?
