Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option A

26.5%

Solution :

The correct option is 26.5%.

From the given bar graph, let us extract the revenue figures (in Rupees Lakh) for the year 1991:

• Revenue from Journals (blue bar) = 45 Lakh
• Revenue from Magazines (green bar) = 45 Lakh
• Revenue from Books (maroon bar) = 81 Lakh

First, calculate the total revenue obtained in 1991:

Total Revenue (1991) = 45 + 45 + 81 = 171 Lakh

Next, find the percentage of total revenue that came from journals in 1991:

Percentage from Journals = Revenue from Journals Total Revenue × 100

Substitute the values into the formula:

Percentage = 45 171 × 100 = 4500 171 26.315 %

Rounding off to one decimal place according to the options provided gives approximately 26.5% (or 26.3% rounded, matching option 26.5%).
