The table gives, for five villages V1-V5, the percentage distribution of the total children and of the children attending school. Total children in all five villages = 5800; total children attending school = 3600.
| Village | Share of total children (5800) | Share of children attending school (3600) |
|---|---|---|
| V1 | 16% | 15% |
| V2 | 24% | 28% |
| V3 | 11% | 14% |
| V4 | 18% | 21% |
| V5 | 31% | 22% |
What is the ratio of the total number of children from village V4 to the number of children attending school from the same village?
A22:21
B29:28
C29:21 ✓ Correct
D31:23
Correct answer: (C) 29:21
Explanation
V4 total is 18% of 5800 = 1044 and V4 attending is 21% of 3600 = 756; the ratio 1044:756 reduces to 29:21. Hence option C.
