How many employees get salaries less than Rs 30,000?

Salary Data of Employees in a Company

The following data shows salaries of all the employees of a company:

Salary (in Rs.) / वेतन (रुपये में)0 - 10,00010,001 - 20,00020,001 - 30,00030,001 - 40,00040,001 - 50,000
Number of Employees / कर्मचारियों की संख्या235105504020

The correct answer is

0.867

To find the fraction of employees earning less than Rs 30,000, we sum the employees in the salary ranges 0-10,000, 10,001-20,000, and 20,001-30,000. This gives 235 + 105 + 150 = 490 employees. The total number of employees is 400, so the fraction is 490/400 = 0.867. Hence, the correct answer is option 3, "0.867."
