उत्तर
(1) The total number of news papers published in Hindi, English, Urdu, Punjabi and Bengali is
=3700+ 3400+ 700+ 200+ 1100
=9100.
(2) The total number of news papers published is
= 700 +400 +1000 + 200 +1400 +1400 + 700 +1100 +3400 +1100
=14,400
The number of news papers published in Hindi is 3700. The percentage of published Hindi news papers is
`3700/14400 xx 100`
`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
3400-700
=2700
