Answer»

RATIO of selected to unselected candidates = 9 ? 2

Let the number of selected candidates be 9x and unselected candidates be 2X

TOTAL number of applied candidates = 9x + 2x = 11x

New ratio = 5 ? 1

Selected = 9x – 20

⇒ Unselected = (11x – 80) – (9x – 20) = 2x – 60

⇒ (9x – 20)/(2x – 60) = 5/1

9x – 20 = 10X – 300

x = 280

Total number of candidates who appeared for army = 11x = 11 × 280 = 3080
