Question : The table below shows the number of students commuting to school by different modes of transport:
| Modes of transport | School bus | Bicycle | Walking | Other vehicle |
| Number of boys | 80 | 280 | 130 | 200 |
| Number of girls | 140 | 190 | 90 | 250 |
Which mode of transport is used by a maximum number of students?
Option 1: Bicycle
Option 2: Walking
Option 3: Other vehicles
Option 4: School bus
Correct Answer: Bicycle
Solution :
From the table, we can calculate the total number of students using each mode of transport by adding the number of boys and girls:
i) School bus: 80 (boys) + 140 (girls) = 220 students
ii) Bicycle: 280 (boys) + 190 (girls) = 470 students
iii) Walking: 130 (boys) + 90 (girls) = 220 students
iv) Other vehicle: 200 (boys) + 250 (girls) = 450 students
So, the Bicycle is the mode of transport used by the maximum number of students (470 students).
Hence, the correct answer is Bicycle.
