(ii) Total population of the town 
= 1400 + 1200 + 1100 + 1000 + 900 + 800 + 300 = 6700

(iii) The number of persons in the age group of 60 - 65 is 800. 

(iv) The number of persons are more in the age group 10 - 15 than in the age group 30-35
= 1400 - 1100 = 300

(v) The age group in which exactly 1200 persons living in the town is 20 - 25

(vi) The total number of person living in the town is 20-25

(vii) The total number of persons living in the town in the age group 10 to 15 and 60-65

Solution
(i) Total number of students obtaining less than 20 marks = 27 + 12 = 39 
The cost off one - work book = Rs 5.
∴ The cost of 30 work books = 39 × 5
= Rs. 195. 

(ii) The number of students belonging to the highest mark group = 17 
The cost of a prize = 10.
∴ The cost of 17 prizes = 10 × 7
= Rs. 170

(iii) The number of students belonging to the lowest mark group = 27 
The number of problems solved by 1 student = 5 
∴ The total number of problems solved by 27 students = 5 × 27 = 135.

(iv) (a) Total number of students = 100 
The number of students in range = 40 - 49 = 17. 
% of students obtaining marks ranging 
40 - 49 = 17/100 × 100 = 17% 
So, the given statement is true. 
(b) The given statement is false (False). 

(v) No. of students getting more than 20 marks = 39

(vi) Total no. of students getting more than 29 marks = 41

The percentage of the total number of students has their heights more than 149 cm 
= 31/50 × 100 = 31 × 2 = 62 % 

(ii) The number of students in the range of maximum height of the class is 5. 

(iii) Total number of students below height of 150cm  = 7 + 12 = 19
The cost of the tonic for each student = Rs. 55 
The cost of the tonic for 19 student = 19 × 55  = Rs 1045

(iv) The number of students are in the range of shortest height of the class = 7.

(v) (a) True
(b) False
(c) Total number of students in the range of 145 - 154 
= 12 + 17 = 29
So, the given statement is true.
