Question

The given graph shows the number of stamps each pupil has.


But the given bar graph is incomplete since the number of stamps Meena has is not represented. Find the number of stamps Meena has if the total number of stamps the four children have is 150. Here the scale is x axis 1 cm = 1 child and y axis 1 cm = 5 stamps.

• A. 25
• B. 30
• C. 15
• D. 45

Answer 1

The correct option is D 45

Here, we have to find the number of stamps with Meena.
Sheela's stamps + Arun's stamps + Kiran's stamps + Meena's stamps = 150
So,
25 + 45 + 35 + Meena's stamps = 150
$\Rightarrow$ 105 + Meena's stamps = 150
$\Rightarrow$ Meena's stamps = 150 - 105
= 45
Thus, the number of stamps with Meena is 45.
