  • D.if you think the inference is probably false though not definitely false in the light of he facts given and.

Answer: C

Correct answer: Data inadequate

The passage gives two numbers that look relevant and are not. Over 50 percent of schools have pupils reading in the open, which is a fact about schools rather than about children; and over six million children of lower income group parents remain unlettered, which is a count rather than a proportion. Without the total number of children in Bihar no percentage can be worked out.
