The total distribution of mobile phones among Low income people of all the states together excluding Haryana is approximately what percent of the total distribution in all the states together?
A63.7
B45.6
C54.9
D50.7 ✓ Correct
Correct answer: (D) 50.7
Explanation
The answer is about 50.7 percent.
Low income counts are Madhya Pradesh 3.25, Bihar 1.904 and Uttar Pradesh 1.975 lakh.
They are Punjab 1.995, Assam about 3.28 and Kerala 2.82 lakh.
Adding these six counts gives about 15.2 lakh.
The total distribution in all states is 30 lakh.
So 15.2 divided by 30, times 100, is about 50.7 percent.
So the answer is 50.7.
