Correct Answer: Bicycle


Solution : From the table, we can calculate the total number of students using each mode of transport by adding the number of boys and girls:
i) School bus: 80 (boys) + 140 (girls) = 220 students
ii) Bicycle: 280 (boys) + 190 (girls) = 470 students
iii) Walking: 130 (boys) + 90 (girls) = 220 students
iv) Other vehicle: 200 (boys) + 250 (girls) = 450 students
So, the Bicycle is the mode of transport used by the maximum number of students (470 students).
Hence, the correct answer is Bicycle.
