Introduction to Data Interpretation

Direction: The following is a horizontal bar diagram showing the accidents in which two-wheelers are involved with other objects. Study the diagram and answer the questions.

  1. If the data of the bar diagram is represented by a pie-chart, and the angle of a sector of the pie- chart is 36°, then this sector represents the accidents involving
    1. pedestrians
    2. bicycles
    3. buses
    4. stationary vehicles
Correct Option: D

On the basis of given graph in question , we see that one box represents a number of 20 units.
Total accidents = 230 + 150 + 120 + 160 + 40 + 200 + 100 = 1000 units
In pie chart , complete angle = 360°
∵ 1000 ≡ 360°

∴ 100 ≡
360
× 100 = 36°
1000

From above clear that this sector represents the accidents involving stationary vehicles .
So , stationary vehicles having in diagram = 5 Boxes = 5 × 20 = 100 units
Hence , required answer is option D .
