Question

At the most what percentage of total time was spent on test taken in VA and LA?

• A. 10%
• B. 20%
• C. \(66\frac{2}{3}%\)
• D. 1%

Hint:

When multiple topics share an activity (like test), and total time is limited, allocate all of it optimally to calculate max contribution.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: From pie chart – Tests = 10% Total time on tests = 10% of overall time. 

Step 2: From Area of Study – VA = 15%, LA = 10% Total = 25% area. 

Step 3: Assume all test time spent in VA and LA So max test time in VA and LA = 10% \[ \Rightarrow \text{Percentage of time on test in VA and LA as portion of their total study time} = \frac{10}{25} \times 100 = 40% \] But question asks: what percent of total time was spent on test in VA and LA? So max time = 10% 

But Option (a) says 10% – which contradicts Wait – question asks “at the most what percentage of total time” So total = 10% test, if all of that was only in VA and LA → that’s 10% 

Answer: 10%
