What is the total number of Sahara channels telecast in all the cities together ?

Options

B. 13100
C. 12300
D. 13400

Answer

To find the total number of Sahara channels telecast in all the cities together, we will sum the number of Sahara channels from each city as given in the table. The values for Sahara channels in each city are as follows:

- City A: 0.5 (which is 500 when converted to actual numbers)
- City B: 0.3 (which is 300)
- City C: 0.6 (which is 600)
- City D: 3.5 (which is 3500)
- City E: 2.1 (which is 2100)
- City F: 6.2 (which is 6200)

Now, let's calculate the total:

1. **Convert the values to actual numbers**:
- City A: 0.5 * 1000 = 500
- City B: 0.3 * 1000 = 300
- City C: 0.6 * 1000 = 600
- City D: 3.5 * 1000 = 3500
- City E: 2.1 * 1000 = 2100
- City F: 6.2 * 1000 = 6200

2. **Sum all the values**:
- Total = 500 + 300 + 600 + 3500 + 2100 + 6200

3. **Perform the addition step-by-step**:
- 500 + 300 = 800
- 800 + 600 = 1400
- 1400 + 3500 = 4900
- 4900 + 2100 = 7000
- 7000 + 6200 = 13200

Thus, the total number of Sahara channels telecast in all the cities together is **13200**.
