Study the graph and answer the question given below: The given graph represents the number of workers getting daily wages (in Rs.). Total number of workers = 200 What is the difference between the percentage of workers whose daily wages are less than Rs. 500 and the percentage of workers whose daily wages are Rs. 600 and above?

Option 4 : 27.5%

Calculation:

Total number of workers = 200

The workers whose daily wages are less than Rs. 500 = (20 + 25) = 45

The percentage of workers whose daily wages are less than Rs. 500 = (45/200 × 100)

⇒ 22.5%

The workers whose daily wages are Rs. 600 and above = (40 + 60) = 100

The percentage of workers whose daily wages are Rs. 600 and above = (100/200 × 100)

⇒ 50%

Now,

The difference between the percentage of workers whose daily wages are less than Rs. 500 and the percentage of workers whose daily wages are Rs. 600 and above = (50 – 22.5)%

⇒ 27.5%

∴ The required difference is 27.5%
