The pie chart shows the different kinds of expenses of a particular family for a month. If the amount spent on electricity is Rs 2250, then what is the difference between the amounts spent on Rent and Food? The numbers given in the pie chart are in proportion to the expenses of the family. Correct Answer Rs 1800

Given:

Expense value of family on electricity = 75

Amount spent on electricity = Rs. 2250

Calculation:

Let the expenses of family be in units

According to the question

75 units = Rs. 2250

⇒ 1 unit = Rs. 30

Now, Difference in expenses of family on rent and food = 240 - 180

⇒ 60 units

Difference in amount on rent and food = 60 × 30 

⇒ Rs. 1800

∴ Difference between amount spent on rent and food is Rs. 1800.
