If the total expenditure of the family for the year 1999 was $ 46000, the family saved during the year :
-
- $ 1500
- $ 15000
- $ 6900

Correct Option: C
From above given pie-chart , we have
Percent on saving for the year 1999 = 15%
As per given question,
Total expenditure of the family for the year 1999 = $ 46000
∴ The family saved during the year = Percent on saving during the year x Total expenditure of the family for the year 1999
∴ The family saved during the year = | 15 | x 46000 = $ 6900 |
