The question is based on the following table. Percentage of national consumer expenditure by category - 2002 A brief explanantion that best suits the table is ...

The given data represents the amount spent by consumers in five different countries in three categories in 2002. As is presented in the table, people of those countries spent more on foods and tobaccos than they did for dresses, education and entertainments. According to the given data, Turk people spent the highest percentage of foods and tobaccos. Interestingly, people of those countries spent the least on leisure and education. None of those countries spent 5 percent on education. 

As is observed, Turkey consumed excessive amount on food and tobacco which constitutes the highest percentage of 32.14%. Whereas Ireland was the second top country which consumed significant high amount on food and tobacco (28.9%) while Italy, Spain and Sweden spent higher than 15% respectively. On the other hand, all countries consumed fewer amounts on clothing and footwear. As is observed, 9% was the highest amount consumption on clothes & footwear by Italy consumers whereas Ireland, Spain, Sweden. Finally Turkey expenditures were less than 5%. 

In observation of this table, we can grab the information about how much people spent on leisure time activities and education. There was a surprisingly common trend in Ireland, Italy and Spain. Their expense in clothing/footwear tripled over the one in leisure/education. On the contrary of this coherent pattern, the multiples between these two categories were less than two times in Sweden and Turkey.  

The largest sum of money spent on "Food, Drinks and Tobacco" was in Turkey, 32.14% of the national consumption, while the least was in Sweden (15.77%).  As for "Clothing and Footwear" category, Italy came first with 9%, followed by Turkey, Spain and Sweden with very close percentages, about 6%.The least was Sweden again with 5.4%. Again, Turkey topped the expenditure; 4.35% of the national consuming was on "Leisure and Education" This time Spain came last with 1.98%. 

Turning to the expenditure on clothing and footwear, Italy turned out to be the country which had its citizens to spend most of their income to buy clothes and footwear (9.00%), which was then followed by Turkey (6.63%) and the country with the least spending on these stuff was Sweden (5.40%). Besides, Sweden was also the country which spent the least money on food, drinks and tobacco among the five countries (2.21%).
