  • Maximum and Minimum Attendance:

    • Maximum attendance: 50 (in October)

    • Minimum attendance: 20 (in December)

  • Months with attendance less than 40:

    • September (30)

    • November (38)

    • December (20)

    • January (36)

    • February (32)

  • Difference between maximum and minimum attendance:

    • 50−20=30

  • Which mode of transport is used by most of the students?

    • The school bus is used by the most students, with 16 out of 36 students commuting this way.

  • What percentage of students use a car for commuting?

    • Number of students using a car = 4

    • Total number of students = 36

    • Percentage = (4/36)×100=11.11%

    • So, 11.11% of students use a car for commuting.

  • Why do you think the school bus is the most preferred mode of transport among students?

    • The school bus is likely the most preferred mode because:

      • It is safe and reliable for students.

      • It is often more affordable than private transport.

      • It helps students arrive on time and reduces traffic congestion around the school.

      • Parents might prefer it for convenience and to ensure their children travel with their peers.
