# Moderate Bar Charts Solved QuestionData Interpretation Discussion

Common Information

Given below are the runs scored by eleven cricket players named $P1, P2, P3, P4$, ... $P11$ in their respective careers which lasted for 7 years.

 Q. Common Information Question: 3/4 How many of the given players had a contribution of less than $10\%$ in the total runs scored by all these given players in their $7$ year career?
 ✔ A. 7 ✖ B. 8 ✖ C. 6 ✖ D. 5

Solution:
Option(A) is correct

Total runs scored,

$=2600+1070+5350+7215$ $+2400+1440+2110+1840$ $+1900+3880+3315$

$=33,120$

Now, $10\%$ of the total runs $=3312$

Except $P3, P7, P10$ and $P11$ all the players satisfy the condition given in the question.

Thus, $11-4=7$ players of the given players had a contribution of less than $10\%$ in the total runs scored by all these given players in their $7$ year career.

The question is contribution of less than 10 in the total runs. So, P3, P7, P10, P11 has contribution of less than 10. Hence, the answer should be 4 not 7. If I am wrong please explain.

Hi Manisha,

The solution clearly mentions that EXCEPT $P3, P7, P10, P11$ all the players satisfy the condition given in the question. So, the answer is $11-4=7$ players.

P.S. I've added an explanation to the solution incorporating more calculation. Hope it's clearer now.
