Direction: Shown below is the multiple bar diagram depicting the changes in the student’s strength of a college in four faculties from 1990–91 to 1992– 93. (Scale 1 cm = 100)
-
How much percent was the increase in science students in 1992–93 over 1990–91?
-
- 50%
- 150%
-
66 2 % 3 - 75%
Correct Option: A
According to given bar graph , we have
Number of science students in 1992–93 = 600
Number of science students in 1990–91 = 400
Total Increase = 600 - 400 = 200
Required percentage increase = | × 100 | Number of science students in 1990–91 |
Required percentage increase = | × 100 = 50% | 400 |
