Direction: The pie chart, drawn here, shows the spending of a country on various sports during a particular year. Study the graph carefully and answer the questions that follow:
-
If the total amount spent on sports during the year was Rs. 30,00,000. The amount spent on cricket and hockey together was:
-
- Rs. 18,00,000
- Rs. 12,00,000
- Rs. 15,00,000
- Rs. 20,00,000
Correct Option: B
According to question the total amount spent = Rs. 30,00,000 = 100%
∴ Total Expenditure on the games of Cricket and Hockey = 25% + 15% = 40%
∴ The total amount spend on the games of Cricket and Hockey = 40% of 30,00,000 = 40 x 30,00,000/100 = 40 x 30,000 = Rs. 12,00,000
