Study the following graph carefully to answer the given questions.
Number of candidates who qualified in a given competitive examination from 6 states during two given years :
The number of qualified candidates from state S in 2005 is what percent less than the number of qualified candidates from state Q in 2005?
Number of qualified candidates from state S in 2005 = 380
Number of qualified candidates from state Q in 2005 = 600
=> % Decrease = $$\frac{600 - 380}{600} \times 100$$
= $$\frac{220}{6} = \frac{110}{3} = 36 \frac{2}{3} \%$$
