Solution

The correct option is B $28$ %
Total expenditure $=$ 900 $C l o t h e s c a t e g o r y h a s g r e a t e s t e x p e n d i t u r e$ = $254$
% $o f g r e a t e s t e x p e n d i t u r e = \frac{c l o t h e s^{'} s e x p e n d i t u r e}{T o t a l e x p e n d i t u r e} \times 100$
$= \frac{254}{900} \times 100$
$= 28.22$ %
$≃ 28$ %
