The given pie chart shows the percentage-wise distribution of books in 5 different states A, B, C, D, and E. The total number of books is 2500.
What is the difference between the total number of books in states B and C together and the total number of books in states D and E together?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 75.
The total number of books in states B and C = 2500 × (24 + 18)/100 = 1050
The total number of books in states D and E together = 2500 × (25 + 20)/100 = 1125
Difference = 1125 - 1050 = 75
