Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below.
Over the top (OTT) subscribers of a platform are segregated into three categories: i) Kid, ii) Elder, and iii) Others.
Some of the subscribers used one app and the others used multiple apps to access the platform. The figure below shows the percentage of the total number of subscribers in 2023 and 2024 who belong to the ‘Kid’ and ‘Elder’ categories.
The following additional facts are known about the numbers of subscribers.
- The total number of subscribers increased by 10% from 2023 to 2024.
- In 2024, 1/2 of the subscribers from the ‘Kid’ category and 2/3 of the subscribers from the ‘Elder’ category subscribers use one app.
- In 2023, the number of subscribers from the ‘Kid’ category who used multiple apps was the same as the number of subscribers from the ‘Elder’ category who used one app.
- 10,000 subscribers from the ‘Kid’ category used one app and 15,000 subscribers from the ‘Elder’ category used multiple apps in 2023.

Let’s solve the 4 questions step-by-step based on the graph, table, and conditions provided in the image.
Step-by-Step Construction:
✅ Step 1: Use Condition 4 (2023 exact values)
“In 2023, the number of kids using one app = 10000″
“The number of elders using multiple apps = 15000″
So far:
- Kids (one app, 2023) = 10000
- Elders (multiple apps, 2023) = 15000
✅ Step 2: Use Condition 3 (equal values)
“In 2023, number of kids using multiple apps = number of elders using one app“
Let’s call this value X.
So:
- Kids (multiple apps, 2023) = X
- Elders (one app, 2023) = X
✅ Step 3: Use percentages from the bar graph (2023 only)
From the graph:
- Kids = 15% of total in 2023
- Elders = 20% of total in 2023
→ Others = 100% − 15% − 20% = 65%
Let total in 2023 = 100000 (for simplicity)
So:
- Kids total = 15% of 100000 = 15000
- Elders total = 20% of 100000 = 20000
- Others total = 65% of 100000 = 65000
✅ Step 4: Now solve for X
From earlier:
- Kids: One = 10000, Multiple = X
→ Total = 10000 + X = 15000
→ So X = 5000 - Elders: One = X = 5000, Multiple = 15000
→ Total = 5000 + 15000 = 20000
These values now match the 15% and 20% splits for kids and elders in 2023.
🔢 Reference Table (from the final calculation in the image):
| Category | 2023 One | 2023 Multiple | 2023 Total | 2024 One | 2024 Multiple | 2024 Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kids | 10000 | 11000 | 21000 | 11000 | 11000 | 22000 |
| Elders | 5000 | 15000 | 20000 | 22000 | 11000 | 33000 |
| Others | 65000 | 65000 | 55000 | 55000 | ||
| Total | 100000 | 110000 |
✅ Q1: How many subscribers belonged to the ‘Others’ category in 2024?
From the table and explanation:
- Total subscribers in 2024 = 110000
- Kids in 2024 = 22000
- Elders in 2024 = 33000
Others=110000−(22000+33000)=55000\text{Others} = 110000 – (22000 + 33000) = 55000
Answer: 4) 55000
✅ Q2: What percentage of subscribers in the ‘Kid’ category used multiple apps in 2023?
From the table:
- Kids using multiple apps = 11000
- Total kids = 21000
Percentage=1100021000×100=1121×100≈52.38%\text{Percentage} = \frac{11000}{21000} \times 100 = \frac{11}{21} \times 100 \approx 52.38\%
Wait — this doesn’t match the provided solution.
Let’s check the image again. It says:
“Kid category had 10000 (one app) and 15000 (multiple apps) in 2023”
That’s not consistent with this table. Let’s match with the conditions:
From Condition 4:
- Kids using one app = 10000
- Elders using multiple apps = 15000
- From Condition 3:
→ Kids using multiple apps = Elders using one app = 5000
So:
- Kids using multiple apps = 5000
- Total Kids = 10000 + 5000 = 15000
500015000×100=33.33%\frac{5000}{15000} \times 100 = 33.33\%
Answer: 1) 33.33%
✅ Q3: What was the percentage increase in the number of subscribers in the ‘Elder’ category from 2023 to 2024?
From the table:
- Elders in 2023 = 20000
- Elders in 2024 = 33000
Percentage increase=33000−2000020000×100=1300020000×100=65%\text{Percentage increase} = \frac{33000 – 20000}{20000} \times 100 = \frac{13000}{20000} \times 100 = 65\%
Answer: 3) 65%
✅ Q4: What could be the minimum percentage of subscribers who used multiple apps in 2024?
From 2024 data:
- Total subscribers = 110000
- Kids using multiple apps = 11000
- Elders using multiple apps = 11000
- Others (no breakdown given) = 55000
→ So we assume minimum multiple app usage if all others use only one app
Total known multiple app users = 11000 (kids) + 11000 (elders) = 22000 Minimum percentage=22000110000×100=20%\text{Minimum percentage} = \frac{22000}{110000} \times 100 = 20\%
Answer: 1) 20.0%
