Figure for question 3

Compared to the immediately preceding Asian Games, which Asian Games witnessed the highest increase in the number of athletes?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

AG1 = 254, AG2 = 268, AG3 = 302, AG4 = 356, AG5 = 384

AG2 − AG1 = 268 − 254 = 14

AG3 − AG2 = 302 − 268 = 34

AG4 − AG3 = 356 − 302 = 54

AG5 − AG4 = 384 − 356 = 28

Maximum increase = 54 = AG4
