Study the graph and answer the question.
The number of states in which the production of wheat is more than 20% of the total production of rice in all five states is _______.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Total production of Rice = 350 + 450 + 575 + 400 + 525 = 2300
Percentage of production of wheat in A to total production = \(\frac{500}{2300}\) × 100
= 21.7%
Percentage of production of wheat in B to total production = \(\frac{375}{2300}\) × 100
= 16.3%
Percentage of production of wheat in C to total production = \(\frac{425}{2300}\) × 100
= 18.47%
Percentage of production of wheat in D to total production = \(\frac{560}{2300}\) × 100
= 24.3%
Percentage of production of wheat in E to total production = \(\frac{475}{2300}\) × 100
= 20.6%
So , 3 states has more than 20% of production.
