The given data shows the weekly wages (in Rs.) of 15 workers in a factory:
300, 250, 200, 250, 200, 150, 350, 200, 250, 200, 150, 300, 150, 200, 250
We need to find how many workers are getting paid minimum wage.
We can arrange the given data in ascending order as follows:
150, 150, 150, 200, 200, 200, 200, 200, 250, 250, 250, 250, 300, 300, 350.
From the above order, we can see that 150 is the minimum wage and has repeated thrice. Hence three workers has a weekly wage of Rs. 150.
Thus, three workers is getting paid Rs. 150.
Hence, the correct option is 2.
