Distribution of Overseas Tourist Traffic from India.
3.
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.

In the question given that total tourists in Switzerland 25% which actually given in 1st pie chart other 20% which means Switzerland coming in other.
Because not specially mention data of Switzerland which means out of 20%
Switzerland got 25%.
So, 25/100 x 1/5 = 25lakh means total 5cr,
So, 15% equal to 75 lakh.

See, let us consider the total no of tourist to be 'x'.
From the above conditions;
20% move out to other countries ----------> (i).
{ i.e. mathematically (20* x /100) }.
Switzerland comes under (other countries) ***from that 20% ------- (a).
Indian tourist's visited Switzerland is 25% ------ >(ii).
{i.e mathematically (20* x /100) * 25/100 }.
So, the Indian people visited in Fig are 25,00,000/-.
We can simply put the situation as {i.e mathematically (20* x /100) * 25/100 = 25,00,000 ------> (iii).
From the above iii equations, we can get (total no of tourists) ' x' =5 crores (5,00,00,000).
So, here the game changes, the question is asking about the total tourists from the age 30-39 (i.e 15 %) is traveling abroad,
So from the total tourist, 15% is between the ages 30-39,
i.e 5,00,00,000 * 15/100 = 75,00,000 (75 lakh).
