Directions for question

Mr N Chandrasekaran, Chairman of the Taj Group of Hotels, in the process of investigating the reason for the not so good financial performance of the top ten hotels of their group in the financial year 2022-23, initiated two surveys.

The survey was to be done specifically for the following top ten hotels of their group : 1) Taj Palace (Delhi), 2) Taj Coromandel (Chennai), 3) Taj Bengal (Kolkata), 4) Taj Skyline (Ahmedabad), 5) Taj Chandigarh (Chandigarh), 6) Taj Malabar (Cochin), 7) Umaid Bhawan Palace (Jodhpur), 8) Taj Ganges (Varanasi), 9) Taj Chia Kutir (Darjeeling) and 10) Taj Exotica (Andaman).

In 2021-22, a certain number of people went to these hotels (collectively) and in 2022-23, these people again visited one or more of these 10 hotels. 

One of the surveys was to find out what percentage of the first time guests of these top ten hotels of their group repeated their visit at these ten hotels in the financial year 2022-23. The second was to find out what percentage of those who repeated their visit at these ten hotels in the financial year 2022-23, were there for business purposes. 

The following was the result of the survey in the form of a line graph with two components :

Name of Hotel

% of the first time guests who repeated their visit among the hotels, in the financial year 2022-23

% of those who were on a repeat visit for business purpose only, in the Financial year 2022-23

% of the first time guests who were on a repeat visit for business purpose only, in the Financial year 2022-23

1

Taj Palace (Delhi)

15%

75%

75% of 15% = (75*15)/100 = 11.25%

2

Taj Coromandel (Chennai)

10%

55%

55% of 10% = (55*10)/100 = 5.50%

3

Taj Bengal (Kolkata)

40%

55%

55% of 40% = (55*40)/100 = 22.00%

4

Taj Skyline (Ahmedabad)

30%

70%

70% of 30% = (70*30)/100 = 21.00%

5

Taj Chandigarh (Chandigarh)

30%

60%

60% of 30% = (60*30)/100 = 18.00%

6

Taj Malabar (Cochin)

15%

45%

45% of 15% = (45*10)/100 = 6.75%

7

Umaid Bhawan Palace (Jodhpur)

45%

25%

25% of 45% = (25*45)/100 = 11.25%

8

Taj Ganges (Varanasi)

20%

65%

65% of 20% = (65*20)/100 = 13.00%

9

Taj Chia Kutir (Darjeeling) 

25%

30%

30% of 25% = (30*25)/100 = 7.50%

10

Taj Exotica (Andaman)

10%

15%

15% of 10% = (15*10)/100 = 1.50%

From the above chart we can see that in both Taj Palace (Delhi) and Umaid Bhawan Palace (Jodhpur), the percentage of first time guests who were on a repeat visit for business purpose, was 11.25%, and hence, the same.

But the number of first time guests for the above listed top ten hotels of the group is a constant. Hence, the fact that the percentage of first time guests who were on a repeat visit for business purpose is the same, implies that the number of guests who were on a repeat visit for business purpose, too is the same.

Hence, the number of first time guests who were on repeat visits for business purposes were the same at the Umaid Bhawan Palace (Jodhpur) and Taj Palace (Delhi)
