    Number of workers placed in the highest wage group 1700 - 1800 = 7
    Required ratio = Number of workers placed in the lowest wage group 1000 - 1100 : Number of workers placed in the highest wage group 1700 - 1800

    Correct Option: A

    According to given bar graph , we have
    Number of workers placed in the lowest wage group 1000 - 1100 = 3
    Number of workers placed in the highest wage group 1700 - 1800 = 7
    Required ratio = Number of workers placed in the lowest wage group 1000 - 1100 : Number of workers placed in the highest wage group 1700 - 1800
    Required ratio = 3 : 7

    Number of workers who got monthly wages in rupees 1100 - 1200 = 8
    Number of workers who got monthly wages in rupees 1200 - 1300 = 5
    Number of workers who got monthly wages in rupees 1300 - 1400 = 4
    Number of workers who got monthly wages in rupees 1400 - 1500 = 9
    Number of workers who got monthly wages in rupees 1500 - 1600 = 8
    Number of workers who got monthly wages in rupees 1600 - 1700 = 6
    Number of workers who got monthly wages in rupees 1700 - 1800 = 7

    Correct Option: C

    From the given bar diagram , we see
    Number of workers who got monthly wages in rupees 1000 - 1100 = 3
    Number of workers who got monthly wages in rupees 1100 - 1200 = 8
