In 2017, the CAT exam\“s Quantitative Ability section, specifically slot 2, focused on various mathematical concepts relevant to Indian products. For instance, it included problems related to calculating profit margins for local handicrafts, analyzing sales data of traditional textiles, and optimizing production costs for agricultural goods. These questions helped assess candidates\“ ability to apply quantitative skills in real-world scenarios involving Indian industries.
Another key area was the use of statistics to evaluate the growth of small-scale enterprises, such as those producing spices or handmade items. By solving these problems, students could better understand how quantitative methods support decision-making in India\“s diverse product market. |
