Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 14

Number of person who earns less than 200 = 12

No of person who earns less than 250 = 26

No of person who earns less than 250 and more than 200 = 26 - 12 = 14

No of person who earns less than 300 = 34

No of person who earns less than 300 but more than 250 = 34 - 26 = 8

No of person who earns less than 350 = 40

No of person who earns less than 350 and more than 300 = 40 - 34 = 6

Number of person who earns more than 250 and less than 350 = 8 + 6 = 14
