Question 127

The following pie-chart and table show the percentage distribution of farmers in 5 states A, B, C, D & E of a country who claimed insurance due to drought in the year 2017 and ratio of males to females of the number of farmers in states, respectively.
Study the pie-chart and the table carefully and answer the following questions.
Note: Some data are missing in the pie-chart and table, if required in any question, find the missing data first and then answer the question.
Total number of farmers who claimed insurance in the year 2017 = 2,64,000

The number of farmers who claimed insurance in state C exceeds the total number of farmers (who claimed insurance)in state E and state A together by 5280. What is the percentage of farmers who claimed insurance in state E?

Solution

Total number of farmers who claimed insurance in the year 2017 = 2,64,000

Let $$x\%$$ of farmers claimed insurance in state E.

=> $$\frac{(36-24-x)}{100}\times264000=5280$$

=> $$(12-x)=\frac{5280}{2640}=2$$

=> $$x=12-2=10\%$$

=> Ans - (C)
