(i) If the total spending is 10 crores, how much money was spent on roads?

Given, total amount spent by state government under different heads = 10 crores

From the given pie chart,

Percentage of money spent on Roads = 10 %

Total money spent on Roads = (10/100) × 100000000

= 1,00,00,000

(ii) How many times is the amount of money spent on education compared to the amount spent on roads?

Given, total amount spent by state government under different heads = 10 crores

From the given pie chart,

Percentage of money spent on Roads = 10 %

Total money spent on Roads = (10/100) × 100000000

= ₹ 1,00,00,000

Percentage of money spent on Education = 25 %

Total money spent on Education = (25/100) × 100000000

= ₹ 2,50,00,000

Then,

= Total money spent on Education/ Total money spent on Roads

= ₹ 2,50,00,000/₹ 1,00,00,000

= ₹ 25/10

∴Money spent on education is 2.5 times of money spent on roads.

(iii) What fraction of the total expenditure is spent on both roads and public welfare together?

Given, total amount spent by state government under different heads = 10 crores

From the given pie chart,

Percentage of money spent on Roads = 10 %

Percentage of money spent on Public Welfare = 20 %

So,

Fraction of the total expenditure is spent on both roads and public welfare together,

= 10% + 20%

= (10/100) + (20/100)

= (1/10) + (2/10)

= (3/10)
