Question

$\text{Below pie chart shows the household}\text{expenses.}$If the monthly salary of joseph is ₹50,000 then select the sector on which ₹9,000 is spent.

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.
• E.

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Given: Monthly salary = ₹50,000
and expenditure on a sector = ₹9000

$\therefore$ % of expenditure on a sector
= $\frac{9000}{50000}\times 100=18\%$

From pie chart we can see that the 18 % of the salary is spent on education.
$\therefore$ Education is that sector on which ₹9000 are spent.
