Question

What can be said regarding the two statements if it is known that number of people in each of the cities is an integral multiple of 100?

Statement 1: - The total number of people in Bangalore is less than that in Mumbai

Statement 2: - The total number of people from north India in Bangalore is more than the number of people from north India in Mumbai.

• A. Both statements are true.
• B. Both statements are false.
• C. If statement 1 is true, then statement 2 is false.
• D. If statement 1 is true, only then, statement 2 is true

Answer 1

The correct option is C

If statement 1 is true, then statement 2 is false.

Statement 1- B<M
Statement 2- $N_B>N_M$=>13% of B> 15% of M (This is possible only if B>M)
Thus, if statement 1 is true, statement 2 is definitely false.
