    =
    25
    × 46,000 = $ 11500
    100

    Correct Option: A

    Total amount spent = 46,000
    Amount spent clothing and housing together = (10% + 15%) of
    $ 46000

    =
    25
    × 46,000 = $ 11500

  1. Study the above bar graph showing the production of food grains (in million tons). What is the ratio between the maximum production and the minimum production during the given period?











  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    According to given bar graph , we see
    The maximum production of food grains in 2007 = 100 million tonnes
    The minimum production of food grains in 2008 = 40 million tonnes
    ∴ Required ratio = The maximum production of food grains in 2007 : The minimum production of food grains in 2008

    Correct Option: D

    According to given bar graph , we see
    The maximum production of food grains in 2007 = 100 million tonnes
    The minimum production of food grains in 2008 = 40 million tonnes
    ∴ Required ratio = The maximum production of food grains in 2007 : The minimum production of food grains in 2008
    Required ratio = 100 : 40 = 5 : 2

    According to given bar graph , we have
    Total marks obtained by a student in all 5 subjects = 60 + 30 + 80 + 50 + 60 = 280
    Number of given subjects = 5

    Required Average marks =
    Total marks obtained by a student in all 5 subjects
    Number of given subjects

    Correct Option: B

    According to given bar graph , we have
    Total marks obtained by a student in all 5 subjects = 60 + 30 + 80 + 50 + 60 = 280
    Number of given subjects = 5

    Required Average marks =
    Total marks obtained by a student in all 5 subjects
    Number of given subjects

    Required Average marks =
    280
    = 56
    5
