In Sabarmati Express, there as many wagons as there are the no. of seats in each wagon and not more than one passenger can have the same berth (seat). If the middlemost compartment carrying 25 passengers is filled with 71.428% of its capacity, then find the maximum no. of passengers in the train that can be accommodated if it has minimum 20% seats always vacant.

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option C
Total number of passenger in each compartment = $$\frac{{ {25 \times 7} }}{5}$$  = $$35$$
Total berth = 352 = 1225
Maximum available capacity
$$\eqalign{ & = \frac{{ {1225 \times 80} }}{{100}} \cr & = 980\,{\text{seats}} \cr} $$
