Direction: Study the following graph carefully to answer the questions that follow : Distance (in Km) traveled by 5 different trucks in a day.

  1. What is the average distance traveled by all the trucks together?

    Required Average distance covered by all the trucks = Total distance covered by all the trucks
    Total number of the trucks

    Correct Option: D

    Given in the bar graph :-
    Distance traveled by Trucks A = 475 , B = 350, C = 550, D = 425, E = 575,
    Total distance covered by all the trucks = 475 + 350 + 550 + 425 + 575 = 2375 Km
    Total number of the trucks = 5

    Required Average distance covered by all the trucks = Total distance covered by all the trucks
    Total number of the trucks

    Required Average distance covered by all the trucks = 2375= 475
    5

Direction: Study the information given in each of these questions and then answer the questions.

  1. Based on given graph, Answer the below question.
    Out of a total 550 students, how many students did not prefer Math or Economics?

    ∵ Total numbers of students do not prefer Maths or Economics = % of Total numbers of students do not prefer Maths or Economics x Total numbers of students

    Correct Option: D

    From above given graph , we have
    Total numbers of students = 550
    Numbers of students prefer Maths = 12 %
    Numbers of students prefer Economics = 16 %
    Total numbers of students prefer Maths or Economics = 12 + 16 = 28
    Total numbers of students do not prefer Maths or Economics = (100 - 28 )% = 72%
    ∴ Total numbers of students do not prefer Maths or Economics = % of Total numbers of students do not prefer Maths or Economics x Total numbers of students

    ∴ Total numbers of students do not prefer Maths or Economics = 72 x 550 = 396
    100

Direction: Study the following graph and answer the questions given below:

  1. What is the approximate percentage increase in the price of crude oil from February to September?








  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Required percentage = 7020 - 3210 x 100 = 118.69%

    Correct Option: D

    Required percentage = 7020 - 3210 x 100 = 118.69%

  1. If in April the crude oil price would have been lesser than the given by Rs. 223 per metric tonne then how much would have been the percentage increase in price over the earlier month?








  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    In April, crude oil price = Rs. 4800 per metric tonne.
    So, reduced crude oil price = 4800 - 223 = Rs. 4577

    Correct Option: D

    In April, crude oil price = Rs. 4800 per metric tonne.
    So, reduced crude oil price = 4800 - 223 = Rs. 4577
    Hence, required percentage = 4577 - 3980/3980 x 100 = 15%

  1. Which month had less than one percent increase in crude oil price over the earlier month?








  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Increase in the price of crude oil in the given month with respect to the corresponding previous months calculate from the given graph.

    Correct Option: B

    Increase in the price of crude oil in the given month with respect to the corresponding previous months:
    In April → (4800 - 3980) x 100/3980 = 20.6%
    In May → (4940 - 4800)/4800 x 100 ≈ 3%
    In June → (4970 - 4940)/4970 x 100 = 0.6%
    In August → (6250 - 5730)x 100/5730 = 9.07%
    it is clear that in the month of May only increase in crude oil price has less than 1% i.e., 0.6 % over the earlier month.
