What is the minimum number of exits required for a commercial building with a capacity of 200 people?

  1. 1

  2. 2

  3. 3

  4. 4

The correct answer is: 2

For a commercial building with a capacity of 200 people, the minimum number of exits required is 2. This is because according to fire safety regulations, there must be at least two exits for buildings with a capacity of 101-500 people. Option A and D are incorrect because 1 or 4 exits would not meet the safety requirements. Option C is incorrect because even though it meets the minimum requirement of two exits, it is only applicable for buildings with a capacity of 501-1,000 people.
