Read the following data and select the appropriate option from the following.
How much percentage of girls are not attending school?
- 81%
- 61%
- 69%
- 18%
Answer:
So, the correct answer is (D): 18% .
Explanation:
- The first category, literacy rate for rural population , includes school passed out.
- The second category, the literacy rate for rural children in the age group 10-14 years , includes only those between the age of 10-14 years .
- The third category, the percentage of rural children aged 10 - 14 attending school , includes those students who are attending school at present .
- So, 100 - 82 (because we are only asked about girls) = 18%
