The pie chart given below shows the population of 8 cities in a year. Total population
of all the 8 cities is 30,000. Population in a particular city is shown as a percent of total
population in all these 8 cities.
What is the average population (approximately) of cities C3, C5 and C7?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 1600.
Calculations:
Sum of the percent of population of C3, C5 and C7 = 8 + 5 + 3 = 16%
Required average = 30000 × (16/100) × (1/3)
⇒ 1600
