Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 32.75%

Money spent on football = 420 = Rs. 21000

⇒ Amount in 10 = 21000/42 = 500

⇒ Amount spent on Tennis and Basketball together = 350 + 400 = 750 = 75(500) = 37500

⇒ Amount spent on Hockey and Cricket = 940 + 1350 = 2290 = 229(500) = 114500

Required percentage = (Money spent on Tennis and Basketball taken together/Money spent on Hockey and Cricket taken together) × 100 = (37500/114500) × 100 = 32.75%
