Question:

The following histogram represents the daily earnings of 50 medical stores in a locality.

The difference between the percentage of medical stores whose daily earnings are less than ₹1,000 and the percentage of medical stores whose daily earnings are ₹1,200 and above is:

Options:

24%

16%

15%

12%

Correct Answer:

16%

Explanation:

Number of medical stores whose daily earnings are less than ₹1,000

= 16 + 10

= 26

Number of medical stores whose daily earnings are ₹1200 and above

= 8 + 6 + 4

= 18

Required percentage = \(\frac{Required \;Differnce }{Total \; number \;of \;stores}\) × 100

= \(\frac{26 - 18 }{ 50 }\) × 100

= 16%
