Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Bicycle.
Given that
The number of students commuting to school by School bus = 140 + 80 = 220
The number of students commuting to school by Bicycle = 280 + 190 = 470
The number of students commuting to school by Walking = 130 + 90 = 220
The number of students commuting to school by Other Vehicles = 200 + 250 = 450
Hence, the maximum number of students commuting to school by Bicycle
