The following table shows the frequency distribution of weekly wages of 65 employees : Wages (in Rupees) No. of employees 251-260 8 261-270 10 271-280 16 281-290 14 291-300 10 301-310 5 311-320 2   What is the percentage of employees earning less than Rs. 301 per week but more than Rs. 260 per week ? Correct Answer 76.9

FORMULAE USED:

Required percentage = (Number of employees earning less than Rs. 301 per week but more than Rs. 260 per week/Total Number of employees) × 100

CALCULATION:

Total Number of employees = 8 + 10 + 16 + 14 + 10 + 5 + 2 = 65

Number of employees earning less than Rs. 301 per week but more than Rs. 260 per week = 10 + 16 + 14 + 10 =  50

Required percentage = (50/65) × 100

Required percentage = 76.9%
