Tourist Data Interpretation: Identifying One-Third Contribution

Data Interpretation questions based on tables frequently appear in competitive exams.
This problem focuses on calculating totals and identifying a fractional contribution.

Country Number of Tourists
USA 2000
England 3500
Germany 1200
Italy 1100
Japan 2400
Australia 2300
France 1000

Step-by-Step Solution

Total Number of Tourists

2000 + 3500 + 1200 + 1100 + 2400 + 2300 + 1000 = 13,500

Checking the Options

Option (A): USA and Japan
2000 + 2400 = 4400 (Not equal to 4500)

Option (B): USA and Australia
2000 + 2300 = 4300 (Less than 4500)

Option (C): England and France
3500 + 1000 = 4500 (Exactly one third)

Option (D): Japan and Australia
2400 + 2300 = 4700 (Greater than 4500)

Correct Answer

Option (C): England and France

Conclusion

By calculating the total number of tourists and then finding one third of that total,
we can clearly see that only England and France together contribute exactly one third
of the tourists visiting India in 2011.
