Ratio of the sum of exchange during the year 1991-92, 1992-93, 1993-94, to that during the years 1995-96, 1996-97 and 1997-98 is:

Discuss
Solution:
Reserve in year 1991-92, 1992-93 and 1993-94
= 2640 + 3720 + 2520
= 8880
Reserve in year 1995-96, 1996-97 and 1997-98
= 3120 + 4320 + 5040
= 12480
∴ Required ratio
= 8880 : 12480
= 37 : 52

The ratio of number of years, in which the foreign exchange reserves are above the average reserves, to those in which the reserves are below the average reserves is:

Discuss
Solution:
Average reserves
  =2640+3720+2520+3360+3120+4320+5040+31208
=278408=3480So, required ratio =3:5
Note :
Years in which the foreign exchange reserves are above the average reserves = 1992-93, 1996-97, 1997-98 = 3 years
Years in which the foreign exchange reserves are below the average reserves = 1991-92, 1993-94, 1994-95, 1995-1996, 1998-1999 = 5 years
