The pie chart given below shows the percentage distribution of total number of hours for which the given yoga masters conducted sessions in the society.

If yoga master C conducted 4 Regular sessions and atleast one session of each type was conducted by him, then find the maximum number of Basic sessions that were conducted by Yoga master C

Options

A. 20
B. 22
C. 19
D. 18

Answer

C

Explanation

Total number of hours for which yoga master C conducted sessions = 50% of 60 = 30 hours
Number of regular sessions conducted by C = 4
Remaining number of hours = `30 – 2 xx 4 = 22` hours
Now it is given that, yoga master C conducted atleast 1 session of each type.
So, for number of basic sessions to be maximum, let number of advanced sessions conducted by him = 1
Number of hours for which basic sessions were conducted by yoga master C = `22 – 1 xx 3 = 19` hours
As each basic session is of 1 hour.
Required answer = 19 sessions
Hence, option C is correct.
