Correct Answer: 24%


Solution : Based on the given graph, accidents in February = 19
There were 25 accidents in January.
Reduction in number of accidents = 25 – 19 = 6
Required percentage = $\frac{\text{Number of accidents reduced}}{\text{Number of accidents that occurred in January}}\times 100=\frac{6}{25}\times 100 =24$%
Hence, the correct answer is 24%.
