The given bar graph shows the number of students of two schools over a period of six years.
In the bar graph, in which year is the absolute difference of the students from schools A to B taken together, the maximum?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e 2012.
Difference of the students from schools A to B in 2008 = 640 - 550 = 90
Difference of the students from schools A to B in 2009 = 820 - 800 = 20
Difference of the students from schools A to B in 2010 = 600 - 500 = 100
Difference of the students from schools A to B in 2011 = 750 - 700 = 50
Difference of the students from schools A to B in 2012 = 900 - 500 = 400
Difference of the students from schools A to B in 2013 = 750 - 480 = 270
Thus, In 2012 the absolute difference of the students from schools A to B taken together is maximum
