Option B

23.08%

Solution :

The correct option is 23.08%.


Step-by-step Explanation:

From the given stacked bar chart, we can extract the number of people (in lakhs) using different types of transport across the four cities:


1. Pune:
- Car: 4 lakhs
- Cycle: 3 lakhs
- Public Transport: 2 lakhs
Total population using transport in Pune = 4+3+2=9 lakhs


2. Nasik:
- Car: 2.5 lakhs
- Cycle: 4.5 lakhs
- Public Transport: 2 lakhs
Total population using transport in Nasik = 2.5+4.5+2=9 lakhs


3. Nagpur:
- Car: 3.5 lakhs
- Cycle: 2 lakhs
- Public Transport: 3 lakhs
Total population using transport in Nagpur = 3.5+2+3=8.5 lakhs


4. Mumbai:
- Car: 4.5 lakhs
- Cycle: 3 lakhs
- Public Transport: 5 lakhs
Total population using transport in Mumbai = 4.5+3+5=12.5 lakhs


Total number of people using transport in all cities combined:

Total = 9 + 9 + 8.5 + 12.5 = 39 lakhs


Required Percentage Calculation:

We need to find the percentage of people using all types of transportation in Pune compared to the total number of people using all types of transportation across all cities.

Percentage = 9 39 × 100

Percentage = 900 39 23.0769 % 23.08 %


Thus, the required percentage is 23.08%.
