AFCAT I 12 Feb 2022 Shift 1 Paper

Let the number of people and seats be x and y respectively
Number of seats which are filled =

7y

11

Empty seats = 24
⇒y−(

7y

11

)=24
⇒

4y

11

=24
⇒ y = 66
So, Total number of seats = 66 ----(i)
So, Total number of seats are filled =

(7×66)

11

=42
Number of people who are sitted on seats =

6x

7

⇒ 42=

6x

7

⇒ x = 49
So, Total number of people = 49 ----(ii)
Now, From (i) and (ii), we get
So, Seats will be empty if total people will sit in the hall = 66−49=17
