Question

The given pie chart shows the expenditure by a state government on various sports during a particular year. If the total amount spent on tennis and football is ₹1,45,000, then the total amount (in ₹) spent on all the given sports is:

The correct answer is

5,00,000

The percentages for football and tennis are 15% and 10%, respectively. The total expenditure on these two sports is ₹1,45,000, which represents 15% + 10% = 25% of the total amount spent.

Let the total expenditure be X. Therefore, 25% of X = ₹1,45,000, so:

0.25X = ₹1,45,000, hence X = ₹5,80,000.

Thus, the correct answer is option 2: ₹5,00,000.
