A man wants to purchase a car and for that, he checks the rating of the car on the internet. He finds the ratings of 9/10 for comfort and 8/10 for resale value. Based on his requirements, he gives a weightage of 55% to comfort and 45% to resale value. Calculate the final rating of the car

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The Correct answer is option 1 i.e.  8.5510\frac{8.55}{10}.

His comfort ratings = 9/10

Comfort weightage = 55%

resale value ratings = 8/10

resale value weightage = 45%

Average ratings = [(comfort ratings × Comfort weightage) + (resale value ratings × resale value weightage)]/(Comfort weightage + resale value weightage

= [(9/10 × 55%) + (8/10 × 45%)]/(55% + 45%)

= 510×99+72100\frac{5}{10}\times\frac{99+72}{100}

= 855/1000

= 8.5510\frac{8.55}{10}
