Solution :
Total spending of the country =1620 crores
Percentage of the amount spent in state P = 13%
Percentage of the amount spent in state S = 26%
Amount spent in state P = 13% of 1620
= $\frac{13}{100}\times 1620$ crores
= 210.6 Crores
Amount spent in state S = 26% of 1620
= $\frac{26}{100}\times 1620$ crores
= 421.6 crores
Hence, the amount spent less on state P than on state S = 421.6 – 210.6 crores
= 210.6 crores
Hence, the correct answer is 210.6 crores.
