Note: (i) Adult = Male + female
(ii) Total number of adult males visited all four parks in the week = 2700

If total female visited park A are 40% more than that of park C and total female visited park B are 115 more than total male visited park D, then find average number of children visited in park A and B.

Correct Answer :

Option E

540

Solution :

The correct option is 540.

Step 1: Understand the given data and find the value of P

From the note in the question:
Adult = Male + Female
Total number of adult males who visited all four parks in the week = 2700

The total number of males for each park is given in terms of P:
Park A = 80P
Park B = 40P
Park C = 45P
Park D = 15P

Summing up all males across the four parks:

80P+40P+45P+15P=2700

180P=2700

P=2700180=15

Now, let's calculate the total number of males in each park:

• Total males in Park A = 80 × 15 = 1200
• Total males in Park B = 40 × 15 = 600
• Total males in Park C = 45 × 15 = 675
• Total males in Park D = 15 × 15 = 225

Step 2: Find the number of females in Park C, Park A, and Park B

For Park C, the ratio of total number of males to females in adults is 9 : 4.

Females in Park C=675×49=75×4=300

According to the problem statement:
Total females visited Park A are 40% more than that of Park C.

Females in Park A=300×1+0.40=300×1.4=420

Total females visited Park B are 115 more than total males visited Park D.

Females in Park B=225+115=340

Step 3: Calculate the total adults and children in Park A and Park B

For Park A:
Adults in Park A = Males in A + Females in A = 1200 + 420 = 1620
Total people in Park A = 2200
Children in Park A = Total people - Adults = 2200 - 1620 = 580

For Park B:
Adults in Park B = Males in B + Females in B = 600 + 340 = 940
Total people in Park B = 1440
Children in Park B = Total people - Adults = 1440 - 940 = 500

Step 4: Find the average number of children who visited Park A and Park B

Average=Children in A+Children in B2

Average=580+5002=10802=540

Therefore, the average number of children who visited Park A and B is 540.
