Question:

The pie chart represents an expenditure of a production company in a month.

If the difference between the expenditure on Marketing and Transport is Rs 2400, then find the expenditure on Transport, Electric bill and other together.

Options:

41600

42500

15600

32800

Correct Answer:

15600

Explanation:

From the pie chart:

  • Marketing = 32%
  • Transport = 24%
  • Electric bill = 8%
  • Others = 20%

Step 1: Find the total expenditure

Difference between Marketing and Transport:

$32\% - 24\% = 8\%$

Given this difference is ₹2400.

So,

$8\% = 2400$

$100\% = \frac{2400 \times 100}{8} = \text{₹30,000}$

Step 2: Find expenditure on Transport + Electric bill + Others

$24\% + 8\% + 20\% = 52\%$

$52\% \text{ of } 30,000 = \frac{52}{100} \times 30,000 = \text{₹15,600}$
