According to given bar graph , we have
The accidents of ( Two-wheelers + Cars + Buses + Stationary Vehicles ) = 230 + 150 + 120 + 100 = 600 units
Total accidents = 230 + 150 + 120 + 160 + 40 + 200 + 100 = 1000 unitsCorrect Option: C
According to given bar graph , we have
The accidents of ( Two-wheelers + Cars + Buses + Stationary Vehicles ) = 230 + 150 + 120 + 100 = 600 units
Total accidents = 230 + 150 + 120 + 160 + 40 + 200 + 100 = 1000 unitsRequired percentage = 600 × 100 = 60% 1000
Hence , required answer is option C .
- The difference in percentage between the accidents involving two-wheelers and two-wheelers and two-wheelers and other objects is respectively.

On the basis of given graph in question ,
Total accidents = 230 + 150 + 120 + 160 + 40 + 200 + 100 = 1000Percentage of accidents involving two-wheelers and two wheelers = 230 × 100 = 23% 1000 Percentage of accidents involving two-wheelers and other objects = 770 × 100 = 77% 1000
Correct Option: D
On the basis of given graph in question ,
Total accidents = 230 + 150 + 120 + 160 + 40 + 200 + 100 = 1000Percentage of accidents involving two-wheelers and two wheelers = 230 × 100 = 23% 1000 Percentage of accidents involving two-wheelers and other objects = 770 × 100 = 77% 1000
∴ Required difference = 77 – 23 = 54%
Direction: A bar graph showing the heights of six mountain peaks is given below. Study the bar graph and answer the questions.

- When the heights of the given peaks are written in ascending order, what is the average of the middle two peaks?

From the given bar diagram , we see
The ascending order is : 6000 < 6500 < 7500 < 8200 < 8600 < 8800Required average = 7500 + 8200 2
Correct Option: D
From the given bar diagram , we see
The ascending order is : 6000 < 6500 < 7500 < 8200 < 8600 < 8800Required average = 7500 + 8200 2 Required average = 15700 = 7850 metre 2
- What is the respective ratio of the heights of the highest peak and the lowest peak?

According to given bar graph , we have
The heights of the highest peak = 8800
and The heights of the lowest peak = 6000
Required ratio = The heights of the highest peak : The heights of the lowest peakCorrect Option: A
According to given bar graph , we have
The heights of the highest peak = 8800
and The heights of the lowest peak = 6000
Required ratio = The heights of the highest peak : The heights of the lowest peak
Required ratio = 8800 : 6000 = 22 : 15

As per the given bar graph ,
Height of mountain peak C = 8600 metreCorrect Option: B
As per the given bar graph ,
Height of mountain peak C = 8600 metre
Hence , the second highest peak is C .
