    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    Number of the students in section C = 31
    Total number of the students in class VI = 34 + 35 + 31 + 32 + 33 + 34 = 199

    Required percentage =
    Number of the students in section C
    × 100
    Total number of the students in class VI

    Correct Option: D

    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    Number of the students in section C = 31
    Total number of the students in class VI = 34 + 35 + 31 + 32 + 33 + 34 = 199

    Required percentage =
    Number of the students in section C
    × 100
    Total number of the students in class VI

    Required percentage =
    31
    × 100 = 15.57%
    199

    From the given bar graph , we have
    Number of the students in section B = 35
    Number of the students in section C = 31
    Required ratio = Number of the students in section B : Number of the students in section C

    Correct Option: C

    From the given bar graph , we have
    Number of the students in section B = 35
    Number of the students in section C = 31
    Required ratio = Number of the students in section B : Number of the students in section C
    Required ratio = 35 : 31

    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    Section A = section F = 34

    Correct Option: B

    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    Section A = section F = 34
    Hence , two sections A and F have the same number of students 34 .
