Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Basketball has a 12.5% share in the pie chart, which is one-eighth of the total. Spending on basketball is therefore 12.5100×1,20,00,000=15,00,000\frac{12.5}{100} \times 1,20,00,000 = 15,00,000, that is Rs. 15,00,000. Rs. 12,00,000 would be a 10% share, which is the share of tennis, not basketball.
