    As per the given above graph , we can see
    Number of literate people in the age interval 15-20 = 900
    Number of literate people in the age interval 20-25 = 800
    Number of literate people in the age interval 25-30 = 650
    Number of literate people in the age interval 30-35 = 600
    Number of literate people in the age interval 35-40 = 500

    Correct Option: B

    As per the given above graph , we can see
    Number of literate people in the age interval 15-20 = 900
    Number of literate people in the age interval 20-25 = 800
    Number of literate people in the age interval 25-30 = 650
    Number of literate people in the age interval 30-35 = 600
    Number of literate people in the age interval 35-40 = 500
    Number of literate people in the age interval 40-45 = 250
    Total number of literate people in the age group 15 to 45 years = 900 + 800 + 650 + 600 + 500 + 250 = 3700


Direction: Study the following histogram of marks in mathematics (out of 50) of students in a class and answer the following questions.

    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    Number of students who score more than 90% = class – interval 45 – 50 = 10

    Correct Option: A

    On the basis of given graph in question ,
    Number of students who score more than 90% = class – interval 45 – 50 = 10
    Therefore , correct answer is option A.

    From the given above histogram , we can see
    Total students ⇒ 135
    Successful students ⇒ 20 + 40 + 50 + 10 = 120

    ∴ Required percent =
    120
    × 100
    35


    Correct Option: D

    From the given above histogram , we can see
    Total students ⇒ 135
    Successful students ⇒ 20 + 40 + 50 + 10 = 120

    ∴ Required percent =
    120
    × 100
    35

    Required percent =
    800
    = 88
    8
    %
    99

    From the given above histogram , we have
    Number of students in the class interval 25-30 = 15
    Number of students in the class interval 30-35 = 20
    Number of students in the class interval 35-40 = 40
    Number of students in the class interval 40-45 = 50
    Number of students in the class interval 45-50 = 10

    Correct Option: D

    From the given above histogram , we have
    Number of students in the class interval 25-30 = 15
    Number of students in the class interval 30-35 = 20
    Number of students in the class interval 35-40 = 40
    Number of students in the class interval 40-45 = 50
    Number of students in the class interval 45-50 = 10
    Total students in the class ⇒ 15 + 20 + 40 + 50 + 10 = 135
