The bar graph below shows the output of five carpenters over one month. each of whom made different items of furniture: chairs, tables, and beds.

Consider the following statements.

1. The number of beds made by carpenter $C2$ is exactly the same as the number of tables made by carpenter $C3$
2. The total number of chairs made by all carpenters is less than the total number of tables.

Which one of the following is true?

1. Only i
2. Only ii
3. Both i and ii
4. Neither i nor ii

the graph given here is different from the gate overflow book

Number of beds made by carpenter $C2 = (20-12) = 8$

Number of tables made by carpenter $C3 = (13-5) = 8$

Total number of chairs made by all carpenters $= 2+10+5+2+4= 23$

Total number of tables $= 7+2+8+3+10 = 30$

So, both statements are correct.

$C$ is correct Answer.

The answer here does not correspond with the bar graph provided.
No of beds made by carpenter C2 = 10

No of tables made by carpenter C3 = 8

Here statement (i) is false.

Let a = No of chairs made by all carpenters is 21

b  = no of tables made by all carpenters is 30

Hence a < b

So the statement (ii) is true

Answer is option B

Only ii
