Discussion
In class III, 150 children were asked to name their one favourite fruit and results for 5 favourite fruits were written in the form of the following table :
| Name of the Fruit | Number of Children |
|---|---|
| Apple | 28 |
| Guava | 26 |
| Mangoes | 44 |
| Banana | 14 |
| Grapes | 28 |
Choose the correct option :
Answer: D
The correct statement is Ten children do not like any fruit given in the table.
Add the children in the table:
\[ 28 + 26 + 44 + 14 + 28 = 140 \]
150 children were asked, so 150 − 140 = 10 children named some other fruit.
The other statements fail on the numbers. Apple (28) and Guava (26) are not equal. Grapes minus Banana is 28 − 14 = 14, not 16. Mangoes and Banana together make 44 + 14 = 58, while twice Guava is 2 × 26 = 52, so that is not 'two times' either.
