Study the given bar-graph and answer the question that follows.
The bar-graph given below shows the distribution of the expenditure of the Company ABC under different heads during a given year as percentages of the total expenditure of the company during that year. The total annual expenditure of the company is ₹30 crores.

What is the difference (in ₹) between the amount spent on rent and that on other expenses?

Solution

The total annual expenditure of the company is ₹30 crores.

total annual expenditure of the company = ₹30 crores

(24+12+25+9+16+14)% = ₹30 crores

100% = ₹30 crores

1% = ₹$$\frac{30}{100}$$ crores = ₹0.3 crores

Difference between the amount spent on rent and that on other expenses = 16%-14% = 2%

= ₹$$(2\times0.3)$$ crores

= ₹0.6 crores
