3. Survey 100 houses in your area. Find the percentage of households using LPG, kerosene, wood and cattle dung as fuel.
Answer:
A sample table for an urban area is shown below:
Fuels | Percentage of households |
LPG | 75 |
Kerosene | 24 |
Wood | 1 |
Cattle dung | 0 |
A sample table for a rural area is shown below:
Fuels | Percentage of households |
LPG | 30 |
Kerosene | 40 |
Wood | 20 |
Cattle dung | 10 |
As you can see LPG is mostly used in urban areas and the uses of harmful fuels like wood and cattle dung is less. In rural areas, kerosene is mostly used and some households still use wood and cattle dung.
“Survey 100 houses in your area. Find the percentage of households using LPG, kerosene, wood and cattle dung as fuel.” – Solved.
