(1) The total number of news papers published in Hindi, English, Urdu, Punjabi and Bengali is
=3700+ 3400+ 700+ 200+ 1100

`3700/144`
=25.7% .
(3) The number of news papers published in English and Urdu are 3400 and 700 respectively. Hence, the excess of the number of news papers published in English over those published in Urdu is
