Question

Study the following graph and answer the question given below. The below Histogram shows the data of the annual rainfall (in cm).

The number of times annual rainfall below 120 cm is what percent of the number of times the annual rainfall above 130 cm?

• A. 100%
• B. 200%
• C. 50%
• D. 40%

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 100%

Solution:

Given:

The number of time the annual rainfall 100-110 cm = 5

The number of time the annual rainfall 110-120 cm = 6

The number of time the annual rainfall 130-140 cm = 2

The number of time the annual rainfall 140-150 cm = 9

Calculation:

The number of times annual rainfall below 120 cm = 6 + 5 = 11

The number of times the annual rainfall above 130 cm = 2 + 9 = 11

The required percent = $\frac{11}{11}\times{100}$ = 100%

Therefore, '100%' is the required answer.
