In the recent, climate conference in New York, out of 700 men, 500 women, 800 children present inside the building premises, 20% of the men, 40% of the women and 10% of the children were Indians. Find the percentage of people who were not Indian?

a) 77%
b) 79%
c) 83%
d) 73%

Answer: b
Explanation: Number of Indians men present there = $$\frac{{700 \times 20}}{{100}} = 140$$
Indian women = $$\frac{{500 \times 40}}{{100}} = 200$$
Indian children = $$\frac{{800 \times 10}}{{100}} = 80$$
Total member present in climate conference = 700 + 500 + 800 = 2000
Total Indian = 200 + 140 + 80 = 420
Hence, % of Indian present there = $$\frac{{420 \times 100}}{{2000}} = 21\% $$
% of people who were not Indian = 100 – 21 = 79%
