Distribution of Overseas Tourist Traffic from India.

If amongst other countries, Switzerland accounted for 25% of the Indian tourist traffic, and it is known from official Swiss records that a total of 25 lakh Indian tourists had gone to Switzerland during the year, then find the number of 30-39 year old Indian tourists who went abroad in that year ?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Tourist traffic from other countries to Swiz is 20%.
Amongst this 20%, 25% of traffic from India.
So, 25% of 20% = 5% corresponds to the Indian traffic in Switzerland.
5 % corresponds to Switzerland's 25 lakh. Hence 15% will be 75 lakh.

See 25%(or 1/4) of 20% will be =5%
Now see,Given in ques that 25%(of 20%)is 5%=25lakh according to swiss record then how much will be the 15%(30-39yrs shown in 2nd graph), it so simple if 5% is 25lakh then 15% will be 75 lakh(means 3 times).
Got it?

It was fine up to X=5 crores. 'X' being the total population of India. But to find the number of 30-39 year old Indian tourists who went abroad in that year it should be.
20% of 15% of X.
That is 20/100*15/100*50000000 = 15 lakhs.
20% of 15% of X.
That is 20/100*15/100*50000000 = 15 lakhs.

As in the question.
Amoungst other Countries (20%) swiss acounts 25% Tourist= 25% of 20%=5% which is 25 Lakhs.
And % of 30-39 years old Indians who went abroad is 15%=X
5:15=25:X.
X=15x25/5.
=75 Lakhs.

20-15 = 5 & 25-20 = 5.
Therefore 3*5 = 15 or 15/5 = 3.
Therefore 3*2500000 = 7500000.
Therefore 3*5 = 15 or 15/5 = 3.
Therefore 3*2500000 = 7500000.
