Direction: A survery of film watching habits of people living in five cities P, Q, R, S and T is summarized below in a table. The coulmn I in the table gives percentage of film-watchers in each city who see only one film a week. The column II gives the total number of film-watchers who see two or more films per week.

  1. A city with the lowest number of film-watchers is :
    1. P
    2. Q
    3. R
    4. S
Correct Option: B

On the basis of given table in question ,
Let total number of film watchers be 100% .
In city P , If 60% of them watched only on movie in a week , then 40% watched two or more movie in a week .
∴ 40% ≈ 24000

⇒ 1% ≈
24000
40

Now , 100% ≈
100 × 24000
= 60000
40

Similarly for city Q,
⇒ 100% ≈
100 × 30000
= 37500
80

For city R,
⇒ 100% ≈
100 × 24000
= 160000
15

For city S,
⇒ 100% ≈
100 × 27000
= 60000
45

For city T,
⇒ 100% ≈
100 × 80000
= 320000
25

Hence , the lowest number is for city Q .
