Correct Answer :

Option B

316

Solution :

The correct answer is 316.

From the given data and bar graph, we are given the total number of challans generated in two months:

Total challans in June = 800
Total challans in July = 1200

Analyzing the percentage distribution from the bar graph for each city:

1. Challans generated in City A and B together in July:
From the graph, for July (orange bars):
Percentage for City A in July = 18%
Percentage for City B in July = 35%
Total percentage for A and B in July = 18% + 35% = 53%

Challans in A and B (July)=53% of 1200

Challans in A and B (July)=53100×1200=53×12=636

2. Challans generated in City D and E together in June:
From the graph, for June (blue bars):
Percentage for City D in June = 11%
Percentage for City E in June = 29%
Total percentage for D and E in June = 11% + 29% = 40%

Challans in D and E (June)=40% of 800

Challans in D and E (June)=40100×800=40×8=320

3. Calculate the difference:
We need to find how much more the total number of challans generated in city A and B together in July is compared to that in city D and E together in June.

Difference=636-320=316

Therefore, the total number of challans generated in city A and B together in July is 316 more than the total number of challans generated in city D and E in June.
