Introduction to Data Interpretation

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.

  1. The percentage by which the accidents involving buses is less than the accidents involving tanker lorry is
    1. 6%
    2. 4%
    3. 40%
    4. 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 =
160 - 120
× 100 = 4%
1000
