Answer»

Let the ratio of selected(x) to UNSELECTED candidates (y) = x/y = 3m/m

Then the TOTAL NUMBER of candidates = 3m + m = 4M

Also given that 60 less had APPLIED and 30 less selected, the ratio of selected to unselected would have been 5 : 1

⇒ 4m - 60 have been applied, 3m - 30 has selected,

Total number of unselected candidates = Total number of applied candidates – total selected candidates

Total number of unselected candidates = (4m – 60) – (3m – 30) = m - 30

From the given data,

Selected candidates/Unselected candidates = 5/1

(3m - 30)/(m - 30) = 5/1

3m - 30 = 5(m - 30)

2m = 120

m = 60

∴ total no of candidates = 4m = 4(60) = 240
