Six out of ten Brazilians don’t have a cellular phone yet.
This text refers to items from 16 through 25.
1 Japan and Korea are outstanding markets in terms
of the world’s advances in cellular telephony, where
multimedia applications have surged into feverish
4 popularity. Users in these countries have demanded
velocity and high quality data transmission — such as
images, videos and sounds — as the principal distinctive
7 features for the cellular telephone. Although the industry in
Brazil is not yet experiencing the same phase as in the
Asian countries, innovative third generation services,
10 aligned with world-class technology, are already present,
with data transmission speeds of up to 2.4 Mbps.
In fact, in some cases, Brazil has held multimedia
13 application launches simultaneously with the United States,
tremendously increasing the economic and digital inclusion
that cellular telephony has fomented in recent years. The
16 heavy impact of mobile communication on Brazilian
society can be measured by the expansion of the customer
base, which has been growing at historic rates of 30% a
19 year and now serves over 50 million customers. In other
words, four out of every ten Brazilians have a cellular
telephone.
22The importance of mobile telephony has already
surpassed that of the traditional fixed telephone system,
because the cell phone actually fulfills the function of
25 taking communication to all levels of the population. Its
widespread network has opened gateways to regions that
formerly had not been benefited by the implementation of
28 a fixed telephone system, such as, for example, many rural
areas that are now mobile telephone customers.
The responsibility that cellular telephony carries
31 as an instrument for transforming people’s lives tends to
increase enormously in the short term. In Brazil, third
generation CDMA 3G EVDO service is already offered and
34 is able to provide handheld resources, similar to CD, DVD
and TV, anywhere and at any time, based on Qualcomm's
cutting edge CDMA technology.

A alternativa C, que afirma que "seis em cada dez brasileiros ainda não têm um celular", está correta.
Vamos analisar o motivo:
No texto apresentado, é mencionado que "quatro em cada dez brasileiros possuem um celular". Para entender a quantidade de pessoas que ainda não possuem, basta deduzir o número de pessoas que têm celular do total. Se quatro em dez brasileiros têm um celular, isso significa que os demais, ou seja, seis em cada dez, não possuem um celular ainda.
Essa questão avalia sua capacidade de interpretar informações numéricas e comparativas no texto, um tipo de compreensão bastante comum em provas de concurso.
