The given bar graph shows the number of students of two schools overa period of six years.
In a bar graph, what is the ratio of the students taken for the years 2009, 2011, 2013 together from school A to the students taken for the years 2008, 2012, 2013 together from school B ?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 25 : 17
The number of students from school A in the year 2009, 2011, and 2013 together is (800 + 700 + 750) = 2250
The number of students from school B in the year 2008, 2012, and 2013 together is (550 + 500 + 480) = 1530
The required ratio = 2250 : 1530 = 25 : 17
