Direction: The following is a horizontal bar diagram showing the accidents in which two-wheelers are involved with other objects. Study the diagram and answer the questions.
-
The percentage by which the accidents involving buses is less than the accidents involving tanker lorry is
-
- 6%
- 4%
- 40%
- 28%
Correct Option: B
From the given bar diagram , we see that one box represents a number of 20 units.
Number of the accidents involving buses = 6 boxes = 6 × 20 = 120 units
Number of the accidents involving tanker lorry = 8 boxes = 8 × 20 = 160 units
Total accidents = 230 + 150 + 120 + 160 + 40 + 200 + 100 = 1000 units
Required difference = | × 100 = 4% | 1000 |
